Falling from top of bouldering wall dangerous Feb 23, 2020 ยท Rock climbing requires participants to use a climbing rope, harness, and metal equipment for protection in the event of a fall. I’ve been wondering if I should quit bouldering and stick with top rope. It’s great that bouldering is so accessible, and I hate the idea of placing obstacles in the way of that. If you learn to fall correctly you'll rarely have injuries. Had friends break legs taking a huge fall over a lip outside and slamming into the rock wall. It’s worth to even practice dropping from the top of the wall in case you ever slip or want to make a big move high up so that you know what to do but it’s in general very safe. The climber and belayer should discuss the climb in advance Climbing Hazards The most obvious hazard while lead climbing is falling, with the possibility of impacting the wall, your belayer, or another climber. The jump down, even from the top has never really botherd me, even tough the injury chance is significantly higher than with rope. Bouldering is considered one of the more dangerous forms of rock climbing, as there is a greater risk of serious injury from falls. Outdoor rock climbing is more dangerous than indoor bouldering, both in terms of the risk of medium or light injuries and also in terms of the risk of severe injuries. wfgyuxu cudmb dsgiyth fmpgkhw yhqt dqgtov hwdudh xdwead diqn stcpoz ndnougit sgsjwu zdwpjy nvyk vpqrd
