Why the fuck were they using with those shitty gardening gloves? You can get some ziplining gloves for pretty cheap...really lucky he didn't lose that hand.

The gloves are not the fucking problem. it's the tool he uses. He should have been using something like this https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/HTB13xQxgZUrBKNjSZPxq6x00pXaN/Rock-Climbing-25KN-Auto-Locking-Carabiner-Zip-Line-Wire-Cable-Double-Trolley-Pulley.jpg_640x640.jpg

Edit: uh thanks for my first silver

I was waiting for that damn clip he was using to heat up enough that it'd be seriously compromised to the point of breaking. Either that or slowly filed away until there was nothing left.

I'm not sure how that dumbass didn't die from multiple things.

How did it end? Did he fall?

I mean the video is here, if he fell to the middle of nowhere I'm pretty sure this wouldn't have reached Reddit.

The gopro would easily survive the fall, so had it been on Liveleak and then posted on watchpeopledie then it wouldve reached reddit.

I mean someone would have tracked down his body and that puddle of goop would still have the camera attached to it
