Re: Buster Keaton

I think he isn't. The man on the picture is a Czech guy.

Re: Great image

Thank you ! To tell the truth I just took a photo about another photo. So the original one is not mine. It was on an information table.

In this region there is a scale to class the difficulty of each jumping or climbing from a tower to another one because there are routes that start on a tower and continue on another.

What do you 5.infinity guys call this one. ("Mad Czech " is already taken -- cop slang for exsaguinating somebody by administering cpr.)

Re: Just curious...

If I know well he didn't have any problem. :-) There are very strange methods to reach the nearest tower in the Czech sandstones. There is a scale to measure the difficulty of this method. It is not unusual to make a "human bridge" between two towers and climbers use each other for going.

Re: Just curious...

not only they're good climbers but I know they're amazing explorers/cavers too.
Krubera, the deepest known karst system in the world ( -20080 meters!! ) was actually explored/mapped by an international expedition guided by Czech cavers.
respect.

Re: Just curious...

You mean 2080m deep, do you ? :-)
So Czechs are crazy. :-))))) In the good meaning of the word of course. And they have the best beers. :-)

Re: - 2080 deep

you're right...:-)it was a typing error.
Actually Krubera cave is more than 2080 deep.
:) ciao.

Re: Wow!!!!

To climb on Czech sandstones is a kind of crazyness because when you climb the routes these are almost soloing. There are few anchors in the wall and it's forbidden to use metal hardware as nuts, friends, cams, etc.

Re: oh my god!

Thanks ! As I wrote before it's not my photo. I just shot an exists photo in the national park. :-)
But I agree the original one is very cool. That's why I submitted it.
