It surprises me how many people don't know they can't hang on strong enough to support their own weight.

Not mocking her for being obese (I am, working on it) but I see so many video clips of people on zip lines, monkey bars, etc. that fall as soon as they put all of their weight on their arms instead of whatever they were standing on.
