You are a bit slow off the mark Tmarsh.. this video was posted several days ago under 'climbing videos'(where it belongs).

shitting my pants is the last thing i'd do if I was jammed in an offwidth.. I reckon i'd just cry.

That has got to go into the Guinness world record for most embarrassing moment.

Apologies all. I haven't been following that thread. At least there are no world class videographers around to record my humiliation.

I've shat myself at the crag before and its hardly the most humiliating thing I've ever done. It was quite funny.

If it compares to a delhi belly 'accident' I had in Jungle class on the train from Delhi to Varanasi in the middle of the Indian summer, I want details too.

No I didn't do it in front of a camera.

As the Buthole Surfers say its better to regret something have have done than something you didn't.

As for climbing mental shutdown is what I find most embaressing. Low sac days where you cannot do what you should be able to because you are being a soft pityful retard.

A jammed knee is not so funny when it happens at 6000m. I've just been reading about Boysen's incident in 1975 on Trango Tower. He used his hammer to create a serrated edge on a piton and cut himself out.

So I posted the same vid today because I didn't check it had already been posted. Sorry.
It was new to me and for everyone who hasn't seen it enjoy, for those who have.... watch it again, it's still funny.
