That's right, the whole discussion is about "what if I grossly misused this product?"

I'm curious, healy, have you ever taken a daisy fall?

I have. twice. Hurt like hell. But I was actually not harmed. I didn't break the nylon daisy I was using.

People "grossly misuse" climbing products all the time. Ever hear of someone soloing on a Grigri? IS it rated for that?

When was the last time you did some devious descent? Rappel's from trees or slung blocks way out on the edge...did you clip your "tether" to the sling's before stepping out to thread the rope? What if you slipped?

But that never happens right? No one would ever do anything like that! And slip!! I've got to be kidding!

Keep your head in the dirt and soon your body will join it.
