| I was instructing  for the day, I was climbing a technical 14 arete  hand crack as a demo for the group. As I was climbing I was demonstrating different climbing positions and was being very blaise, I got myself in a layback position that I couldnt get myself out of, After a minute of struggle I whispered "take." My belayer, with a huge grin on his face called up "sorry, what was that?". So a little louder I called "take me in." A 1/2 minute later I screamed "falling" then let go, falling the extra metre of penalty slack I'd been given; to land, dangling, infront of my group.
