gyms more dangerous?
the f--- kind of gym are YOU climbing in???

in 1998 in the UK, 1 543 people were involved in tissue-related injuries in their own home. a significantly lesser number of injuries were reported from being shot into space from a cannon without proper PPE, thus we can reasonably deduce that it is a safer activity.

ps. i once saw a guy fall about 15m onto his back in a gym. i looked around and saw him sit on the rope & weeeee! turns out he clipped into his gear loops. landed on a 2m wide crash mat and got away with pelvis factures or something... anyway theres a fun little slightly related story for you
