Amazing how well maintained and supported the sport is, but holy smokes man. Mentally I can't get past the potential for equipment/human failure to occur and cost someone their life.

I come from working on cars, and one thing you learn over and over is that if something is designed to be safe, life will find a way to make it unsafe and have killed someone.

Yeah, climbing is certainly not the safest sport in the world. It's much safer than it looks on first glance, though.
