    Apparently, this guy made one too many stupid decisions.

    Dan Osman (February 11, 1963 – November 23, 1998)

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Osman

    Dan Osman died November 23, 1998 at the age of 35 after his rope failed while performing a "controlled free-fall" jump from the Leaning Tower rock formation in Yosemite National Park.

    This would be a dream job for me. I do a lot of free climbing and I love heights. The 120k is an added bonus.

    For 120,000 I could maybe do it. I mean hell if you're gonna climb go big. What's the differance between a 300 foot fall and a 1700 foot fall? You're dead either way.

    You just have to treat it the same way you would if you were 10 feet off the ground. Everyone knows how easy it is to climb a small ladder...and the climb he did was no different. It's all about controlling your mind.
