And so, yeah, I mean, tons of experiences like that.
I don't get attacked by birds, like having holds break, like falling off of things, like getting lost in, I mean, tons of weather things.
I don't know, like bad rock experience.
Actually, a lot of my very scariest experiences have actually been with a rope on.
Just because when you're climbing with a rope, you're much more willing to push yourself into the unknown.
Like when you're climbing without a rope, obviously you have to.
really stay within your comfort zone, you know, stay within a safety margin because you're just not willing to push it if anything means death.
But when you have a rope on, you're kind of like, well, I'm willing to push a lot further because, you know, surely conditions will get better if I just go around the corner and you keep going around the corner, going around the corner, conditions keep getting worse and worse.
And then pretty soon you're still looking at, you know, fatal consequences if you fall.
But you're like, oh, no, how did I get here?
You know, it's like a series of bad decisions.
And you just kept going down that path.
So I've had a bunch of really scary experiences with ropes.
And those normally unfold over the period of sometimes even hours.
You know, and it's deeply, I mean, I would say traumatic almost.
But, you know, I don't want to misuse the word.
But it's all very, very scary.
But I wouldn't necessarily take any of that back because, I mean, that's inherent to the climbing experience.
I mean, that's part of climbing.
Yeah, yeah.
