Sub-zero, what are you trying to get at here?
Please refrain from posting until you can come up with something, anything, worthwhile.
Holy crappola, your posts are scary, to say the least.

Is that Kevin Costner? I didn't know he made a climbing movie?

Okay this post had nothing. I thought it was crazy how in about 50 years our climbing has changed. Makes me wonder if they even had climbing ropes and climbing shoes back then. There must have been a lot of accidents.

It's not from the 50's... those guys are just from Eastern Europe.

Actually if you look at the site I got it from they are from the 50's. Check your info first.

OK, I'll bite: Maybe a little context would help here. Who are these people? Where are they? What happened? What were they climbing? Exactly what is the date on the pic? Where can I get a hat like that?

I don't know really much context on it. The guy injured is some guys father, that's all the site said that and it's from the 50's. I was just checking out some pics and that's what was there. The hat I don't know where you can get one. :lol:

In reply to: That's why I'm careful when I climb.
Leave the train wreck sensationalizing to the tabloids and the 10 o'clock news. This forum is better used for valid discussions of accidents, their causes, and how to learn from unfortunate incidents.

There's always a rusty nail somewhere. I just like to make things interesting and my bad if I'm highly entertained by people and their reactions. It's funny.

I don't get the outrage here.
There was a top rated photo that repeatedly showed on the fp for a long period of time, a poor dude with his ankle bone sticking out of his foot. Where was your outrage then?
Context? Climbing accidents happen, no different than that top rated photo.
The outrage seems to be directed at sub-zero in particular, imo.

What website did you get this from?
The properties on the photo says it comes from /www.theparrots.net
Hmmm...that's where I get all my climbing info.

Like Dingus, I am having a hard time understanding what's up ... I haven't followed sub-zero at all, but I will say that the site that he got this from is about a girls school, or something like that ... a lot of soccer information on a certain team. why in hell would a climbing pic be there. I could not even find a link to the accidents.html page????? :?

Dingus, I think you're just being a contrarian. Again. As for context, this may not even be a climbing accident for all we know. Granted, sub-zero, you've got our curiosity up; it's an interesting picture (tabloids often say "if it bleeds, it leads"). On my cubicle wall, I've got an interesting picture of a guy laying on the ground beneath a car dangling from a steel cable, but I don't post it because it's not relevant. So help us out here.

I don't have any tattoos but if I did that probably would be one of them. I got the pic from looking on yahoo for climbing accidents. I was getting some for an english project.

its hard for me to believe that the picture is from the '50's when color photography wasn't commercially practical or available until the 60's.
but if the internet said it, it must be true...

i don't mean to bust your chops, color photography was used as early as the '20's. that just seams like a damn nice picture for very early in commercial color photography.
