I was watching some vids on youtube one day about basic climbing skills and such. This one guy was making his vid and the background was basically the open cliff or boulders, I forget what exactly it was. All of a sudden you see this flash/blip... and he keeps talking and bit and then says, did someone just fall? Sure enough.. and I think the guy actually lived. If I remember correctly I think he grabbed the wrong side of an unknotted rope. Can't seen to find the video now.
