There are many people that are fueled by fear. Trying to push themselves to the limit, these people look for extreme activities to make their adrenaline run. Rock climbing is one of the events that these people are fond of. The places they go to are not of the ordinary. They look for cliffs and mountains with steep areas where they can freely climb up by using various safety equipment. Rock climbing is not for people who are afraid of heights. There are areas that these climbers go to which are more than a hundred feet off the ground. These people are comfortable even when they look down. Some can even sleep on the side of cliffs.
Training is necessary to become good at rock climbing. Those who wish to excel in this sport need to develop their muscles and improve their stamina. Upper body strength is needed to get up on the vertical walls. Leg power is also needed to push the body to higher levels. To help the athlete in rock climbing, various items have been made. Rope harnesses are important to support the weight of the climber. They are used as safety backup just in case the climber slips and suddenly loses his hold on the wall. Shoes and gloves are also available to assist the climber in his ascent.
Athletes who have succeeded in climbing the mountain slopes get a feeling of satisfaction, knowing that they have done what most people are afraid to do. There are some people who want an extra challenge and thus do away with safety equipment. This is very dangerous because accidents can happen at any time. Even with great skills and superior training, athletes can always experience a misstep in the ascent. Therefore, it is always better to be extreme but still with a high regard for safety.
For avid rock climbers, this extreme poster is definitely a spectacular wall decor.
