Recently on the main page there was a great picture of Tommy Caldwell stemming on a roof on a climb (possibly Yosemite).

I'm trying to locate it again but I can't find it anywhere; photos, articles, news.... Where the hell did it go?

Thanks!

Ah! That's where I saw it. No wonder I couldn't find it around here. (D'oh!)

Thanks.

It's a Corey Rich photo, I think he may have it on his website somewhere. http://www.coreyrich.com

He looks like he's going to fall short of that crash pad.

I think that's the new sport of crash pad diving to be held in the next summer Olympics.

The story wasn't as good as I was hoping it was. Oh well, at least it was well written and entertaining.

I believe that the small flying man is credited as "the flying squirrel."

I would love to see how the squirrel handles that landing.
