Did a via ferrata today. The scariest part was a traverse across the side of a cliff. I'm good with heights. But with 600m (!) of nothing under me, I was frankly kinda scared and shaking a bit.
But objectively, that was very safe. Climbing gear works. The _actual_ most dangerous part was these innocent looking steps. Why? Because they're held in place by rebar stakes that could impale you if you tripped.
Your monkey brain is shit at assessing risk in a modern society. Think logically.
@pete I was just noting the (accidental?) Finnish on the sign
@benis Ah! Now I see. That's a very fitting name for a jump point. 😂
