Today I nearly died! This is the picture of my almost doom and also a second picture demonstrating just where i was...Kelly my colleague had managed to break the gym equipment - the cable had got caught, so I being resident daredevil and slightly insane climbed up to try to fix it! I then found that I wasn't quite tall enough to reach the top cable so hovered on the top foot beam with my hands first gripping the window frame and then the roof beam to balance. I then attempted to pull and tug and fix with one hand and at one point one foot floating about freely...then came the biggest danger problem - the DESCENT! I had to somehow let go of the too high arm supports whilst stepping down onto the next rung of the ladder...i can honestly say i have never feared for my death more! added to that no mats to save me! I am seriously lucky to be alive!!

  1. I am very pleased to hear that you are safe. No more dangerous climbing. At least you did not try to take a picture from up there too!
