Blue Mountains - male climber injured after fall 22-Oct-2013 At 4:10:21 PM Dont_trust_anyone

Message

The accident was cause of incompetence I was seconding the final pitch feeling more secure than usual as I normally lead but this time I was on a top rope. I put my trust in the wrong person and I am suffering the consequences. It's 6 months from the date of the accident and we are spending the next 12 weeks trying to save my left foot which was basically torn off in the fall. The guys name is sean kop and I would not recommend climbing with this man.

Please see link below it has the video of the fall I have cut out the view of my ankle as best I could as its not nice to look at.
