Having been close to death several times, and in sheer agonly more than a few, I can promise you that the quick one is MUCH better than the slow one, assuming you will not recover, and it is possible to hurt so badly that you realy and truly wish you were dead already, even when you know you wil recover.

[quote "renohandjams"][quote]Just remember that once you are past about 40 feet you will probably die hitting the ground, so everything is essentially the same after that, except of course you have more time to scream before you die. Just think people die all the time falling of step-latters, falling of the 7th pitch of a climb would be a lot better.[/quote]
:) I don't know if this helps them feel better, but it is true, would you rather fall 60 feet, break your back and multiple bones and then spend the next day or two dying from internal organ injuries, OR fall from 5 pitches up and have a quick black-out-death. I'm a wus, I want the quick one.[/quote]
