I am not much of a computer geek, well at least the geek part, but try following these links:

Computer geeks, anyone?

The images are hosted on another server so it could have been down which would cause it not to display any images.

Sorry if the pics didn’t show up. I wish I could have loaded an html embedded Slide Show but had to go with the individual shots.

He surprisingly didn’t want to quit even after the 20th unsuccessful attempt. Not sure about the pain the next morning...he walked away from the dock fine. I on the other hand would not have been able to move.

Here is the link to the Slide Show if anyone would like to check it out.

BD,

I just knew Zack was going to be SO sore the next few days, but each time I talked to him he said that he was just moderately sore...nothing out of the norm. I couldn't believe it because he took such a beating. He definitely took it like a man. I could feel my neck starting to hurt just watching.

As a side note--I know he was fired up about yesterday and was bummed the weather didn't cooperate...as was I. I was ready for round 2.

true that. i wanted a second chance at it. (i mean 22nd try) I will get it next time. Hopefully on the first couple of tries cause i don't want to take another beating like that. it was fun but i was coughing up water for a while. And had it in my sinuses and ears, and everywhere else. I was a little sore but I have had worse. examples: fallen off a 30 cliff(onto rocks, not water), hit by a car, had a motorcycle wreck and still havn't broken a bone. (knocking on wood) Can't wait for the next time.

Brings to mind 3 words: crash test dummy

Apparently it was my work computer protecting me from goofing off all day on the internet. I see the shots fine at home. Thanks for sharing, nice pics. I would show those shots to someone who can complete that trick, and I think there would be some good suggestions for next time. That is a great way to learn.

Ah, so that's how we get toughend up for trying new tricks. Can you put that training regimine on video? I'm sure people would pay to watch it

[BobbyD]

At least Google would pay for it. I think that is the life-blood of Youtube.com nothing but that kind of stuff. It is fun to watch every once and a while.


We should add links for "Best crash cought on video" I have a couple of decent ones to show.

I knew about the cliff and bike, but didn't know that you got hit by a car! Nice!

I was a bike courier in Washington, D.C. for a summer and was hit 3 times over the course of the two and a half months. One included being drug by a metro bus for about a block, I feel your painful experiences. My worst climbing fall was ripping out 2 badly placed cams in Sam's Throne Arkansas, very loose sandy stone. Effectively trippled my fall distance to about 20 feet before being caught by the belayer.
