He was at the top of the building at the time and without a harness he climbed down the rope to assist her. He slipped from the top of the third story building to the ground below."

Police say a resident and his girlfriend were rappelling with ropes down the side of the building when they slipped.

Who are we to believe???? :confused:

It just proves the old adage that if you give an idiot enough rope, he'll hang himself -- or, at least, fall off a building.

At least they weren't blaring that godawful 'rappelling' music. ;)

Ha ha.

p.s. Anyone ever seen "Commando" style rappelling? I was impressed the first time I saw Aussie style but Commando really is the coolest...
