Tammie, I used to rock climb and repel so I wouldn’t have a problem with that. I tend to be a bit fearless at times but age has made it harder to do these kind of things. Here's a good one. These guys basically go camping for 10 days inside of a cave to map it out and stuff. Looks like lots of climbing, face crawling, and tight squeezes. You just have to ask "Why man why?!!!" fyi the cave goes about 500 ft deep and is almost 5 miles long https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_caves_in_Canada Terra firma baby! Love rock hounding, but I am not a groundhog or mountain goat! Also have a fear of heights, naturally and healthily so! TR Maybe it's for practice drill before the Revelation 6:15-17 rush: “...Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who is seated on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb...” :unsure: :dieu: Maybe in my glorified body 😉 I can fly an airplane, ride a snow machine and motorcycle but the mountain climbing and cave crawling is not in my cup o tea! :mdrmdr: Good one :mdrmdr: :mdrmdr: Well, try it in a cup of coffee! ? My only adventures in a cave was back in July 2002 getting a tour via a tram ride inside Fantastic Caverns - Springfield MO. Ever so often they had the cool color flood lights … map below was the adventure route thru the mountain. I got pictures somewhere I have to find. It was interesting and doable … without having any fear factor moments. B-) I would love to tour those caves! I just have to praise Jesus on this one! When I was 16 or 17 I was exploring "Whipps" ledges here in Ohio and I worked my way all the way to the top of the hill it's all on but on the way down I went a different route and came to a ledge with maybe a 10 - 15 foot drop between another ledge. So in my infinite wisdom I decided to jump across that gulf onto the other ledge thinking it was smooth sailing down hill after that. Well I got a little bit of a running start and made the jump with no problem. however my feet landed on some loose sticks and rocks and I lost my balance and fell backwards off the ledge and fell 10 - 15 feet before landing on a rotted out water logged fallen tree which broke my fall. At first I was kind of in shock and my back was hurt and I was afraid to try and move. Right away some guy saw what happened and went to get help so I just lied there waiting for help and worrying I was going to miss work. After about 20 minutes or so I could see some guy and probably his girlfriend walking towards where I was lol My first thought was I hope they don't see me lying here like this and get all freaked out that they just found a dead body in the woods so I started to try and move around for the first time and I managed to sit and then stand up and start walking towards them and boy was my back sore and my right wrist. They saw me getting up and stopped and I told them what happened then started making my way down the hill. When I got to the bottom some cop was just arriving and asked me if I saw anyone who fell and I was like "yeah it was me" and that I was ok and that I didn't need an ambulance and then left in my car. Looking back God saved me at least 2 ways that day. First the tree broke and softened my fall, and on the other side of the other ledge I jumped onto and then fell from was probably a 50 ft. straight drop down so who knows what would have happened if I would have keep going that way. So praise God for saving my physical life and for saving me from getting hurt more than I did. And while I'm am at it praise God all of His mercies He has given me in my life especially reaping what I have sown in mercy! Anyway I actually found a video that might show where I actually fell from or at least give you a perfect idea of what I was talking about. Right at the 7 minute mark for just a couple of seconds the camera goes up and possibly shows exactly where I jumped across and fell backwards from and down.
