The man was holding on with just his hands and feet.

What else do you hold on to with?:crazy:

True, I was also thinking about possibly unzipping and then tying it around a root.

there is that... It has also been suggested by a friend of mine to " put it in the crack and lean back"

Wow....just wow Doss & Eric. Lacking the uhm necessaries, I have to say you guys are uh...athletic! :eek2:

on a more serious note, was I the only one stumped that through all the unwise decision making process of this dude he remembered to put on his helmet! I mean thank god for that, right?! For someone to decide to go climbing, in the middle of the night, on private property, alone and without any gear except for the helmet he must be one sharp cookie! Safety first!!

I would bet that it was not the guys helmet and most likely one provided by SAR.
