Hy for those of us that call the Gunks our home, that's a pretty incendiary subject line. It's also kind of disprespectful to those involved in real, life or death situations.

No word on the condition of the survivors just yet.

5) can we in any way blame a gri-gri for this incident?

Worthless without pics. Here's the one of the note linked from the Gunks thread:

He was so nice, and I was so flattered, but can you imagine what he would have thought if my stomach let go at that very instant? It would have gone down in his personal history as 'the time a girl puked when I asked her out on a date'.

The note isn't that great an idea - a lot of us fly by the bulletin board without looking...I only saw the note after I had done the climb.

But actually, didn't notice anything "wrong."

Oh for fucksake, sack up and grow a set already.
Waaaaaaaaaahhhhh. The bad man on the internet used a subject line that confused me and made me cry!!!!! It's just not correct and now my panties are all bunched up!!!!!!

That's actually a pretty creative way to have the climb all to yourself.

wish I'd thought of that. I've been licking handholds for years!

People who don't think that someone having a bout of explosive diarrhea, projectile vomiting or both mid-pitch on the rock, and labeling that a "Major Incident" is funny haven't got the sense of humor that climbing is founded upon. This sport is all about morbid and/or toilet humor, and I myself demand a more detailed incident report so future accidents can be avoided:
1) what did they eat? or is Shockley's just really really run-out?
2) through what bowel function did this meal leave the body of said climber(s)?
3) was it the leader, the second, or a team accident?
4) Is the mess awaiting a strong rainstorm on the ground or on the pitch itself?
5) can we in any way blame a gri-gri for this incident?

Really? I've been rubbing my choad on holds for years.

#6 - were they wearing helmets?

#6a - What type of helmet makes the best barf bucket?

It wasn't barf!!!

I certainly hope they weren't doing it Vulgarian style!

Oh...in that case....what do think about a harness with a built in depends undergarment. It could save you time on a big wall.

In 2010 it is rumored that Black Diamond is going to offer a "helmet/honey pot". Can be used on either "end".

I certainly hope they weren't doing it Vulgarian style!

So that's why the Vulgarians climbed with no pants on! It's like the English bowmen at Agincourt who had to fight pantless because of their dysentery.

I feel like death. I'm pretty sure that I look and smell like death. But out of nowhere, some guy starts chatting me up... and asks me out on a date???

He was so nice, and I was so flattered, but can you imagine what he would have thought if my stomach let go at that very instant? It would have gone down in his personal history as 'the time a girl puked when I asked her out on a date'.

I was in the Dacks this past weekend and was wise enough to stay behind my friends in the parking lot the entire morning puking in the woods - too much beer and whiskey the night before!

the hippie place on the drive in gave everyone i knew the shits last week. it was awesome.

In the gunks? Say it ain't so! I always stop in to Karma Road on the way home for my baked tofu sandwich & carrot juice!

Maybe you wanted to get some attention with the subject line, but some of us know many many gunks climbers and seeing a subject line like that can be pretty heart stopping bracing for possible terrible news.

Some of us have lots of Gunks friends too and thought it was very funny. Sack up, since when did you not like heart stopping excitement in your life?

I'm an EMT and RN, I get enough 'heart stopping excitement' in my life, and it stops being funny after the first person you have to try to keep alive after he craters off a climb.

I feel like death. I'm pretty sure that I look and smell like death. But out of nowhere, some guy starts chatting me up... and asks me out on a date???

He was so nice, and I was so flattered, but can you imagine what he would have thought if my stomach let go at that very instant? It would have gone down in his personal history as 'the time a girl puked when I asked her out on a date'.

If they could manage to get their pants off in time why wouldn't they have used a shirt to "contain" the mess? If you're a guy, you can climb shirtless (or rap off shirtless, since I am assuming if you felt that bad you'd probably not finish the climb) and if you're a girl you can climb in your jogbra. It wasn't so hot that day that I'd think people wouldn't have been wearing something. And, sure, you'd have to throw the shirt away, but hell, that's nicer than taking a crap all over the place.

You would have gotten married. Well, at least that's what happened to a guy I used to play volleyball with who puked on his wife on their first date. He had no valid excuse either, just drunk

Apparently, he did it again after they were married too .
