Insert stock photo of Half Dome here...

I’m confused, did she tumble down 500’, or did she fall 500’ off a cliff?

Clearly an assault half dome.

500 feet..”so far so good!!”

400 feet...”so far so good!”...

Technically it wasn’t the fall that did the damage . . .

I could definitely see someone falling even with cables on each side.

Rangers installed cables to help hikers get to the top of the 8,800-foot rock face

I guess the thinking is -- "This is super dangerous! Most people would not attempt such a climb! You'd have to be crazy to try this! So … we'll just install these cables here so that a whole lot of people will be encouraged to take a crack at it …"

Can anyone here tell us the degree of the wall? More than a 45 degree pitch? Looks very steep, almost like a 90 degree ladder. (And I’m assuming there is a different way back down.......)

Bummer of a finish, but she got a great selfie!

Sad. RIP.

She only fell 500 feet.

Seems like she could have bounced back from that...

After hearing of the story, AOC has called for Strict Gravity Control.

So,
Where is The
Other Half?

[Right Wing Assault]

Why don't they install a dozen escalators so it will be safer and more people can do it. They could install automatic selfie cameras that snap you every foot you rise. They will be sent to the device(s) of your choice and you can have them go to twitter and facebook, with pre-selected OMG comments by you, also.

And, if you can't travel to the real location, you can hire a stand-in wearing a face mask with your avatar, so people won't realize it isn't really you, except those who are at the big Half Dome vaping party at your home, celebrating your amazing climb.

Was the taking of a “selfie” involved?
