So True!

On my first trip to frog, only had 1 set of camalots, hexes and nuts. I remember being scared stupid on c--k Corner, having already placed red camalot, needing another, facing a long fall, swinging a hex around my head like a lasso and flinging it at the crack above my head in the hope that it would go in. It eventually did. The flash pump momentarily subsided, only to reappear when I climbed on and accidentally kicked that same hex out 2 min later...ooops.
