Why??? He's fully harnessed and secure, as he said "even if the platform fell I'm connected to the rock...".Bar002811 wrote:That's so stupid!! That guy has taken it way to far.
I've done a lot of abseil fishing in NSW and a few times in Vic., it's a great way to get to the spots where you normally wouldn't.
I've got all the gear if anyone wants to give it a go...?
