I'm a decently strong climber, and I would never discourage people from trying it. But I think an honest presentation should include the risks
- bradlys 4y agoExactly. I’ve had to stop climbing multiple times due to injuries. It just fucking happens for most of us. I had a fucked up shoulder for 6+ months that limited me from climbing and other activities. Even now - I don’t think about it all the time but it makes different noises and feels than before the incident - and not good ones! It reminds me often of what happened.
