I have had the (mis)pleasure of having a bolt come out of the rock face. I still have the scars both mental and physical !

 

You are not supposed to be hanging on the rope... it's called rock climbing, not abseiling.... :)

 

In my youth I popped 3 pieces of protection out after a fall.... sequentially - last one was a permanent bolt and it held... luckily... not a good day at all... fingernails don't grow back in a hurry... and the bruising was pretty spectacular..

what a bunch of w@n kers. who are these idiots?

I hope Tour De Afrique will distance themselves from these idiots - for - among other reasons...

 

Sossusvlei was not an ocean idiot. Trees don't grow in an ocean, idiot. It IS a fresh water vlei / pan.

Leaving skidmarks on Dead Vlei is just plain vandalism, idiot

Riding in traffic like that in Cape Town, gets people LIKKED, idiot

There is no nuclear power plant in JoBurg, idiot

Chasing a West Coast National Park ostrich straight into a fence where it probably broke a leg or its neck is just the most idiotic of it all.
