is lead climbing more dangerious then top rope??? if it is how much more??? my step dad said its way more dangerious and you can get hurt really easlly...he also said if you fall the "pegs" can come out of the rock but im not sure if hes lieing or he just doesnt know??????

I destest the opinion that it is more dangerous. In top roping you have a three mabey four point anchor. That's is! In situation of catastrophic anchor failure, you go lights out as they say in my country. In the lead the anchor is supplimented by your pro selections in the lead. If anchor fails its a switch over to simul-climb senerio and anchor can be reistabuished. The uncle sounds ingorent of the complexities of the situation. Climb on young lad. Lead and learn as they say.
