I'm sure you guys all have stories like this one, but this is probably the funniest thing I've seen slacklining, and I happened to get it on video, so I thought I'd share it with you.

We were slacklining at my college when a big guy thought it would be funny to stand on the line and press it all the way to the ground...What happened was a lot funnier for us than it was for him.

The video is a .wmv so it may not play on non-Windows machines. It also doesn't have any sound b/c I edited it to get the filesize down and somehow lost the audio - which is a bummer b/c the sounds made it a lot funnier.

The URL might change, if it does I'll post a new link.

Poor bastard!!! :( I'm guessing you didn't let him know not to take it between the legs?! You probably should have if you didn't...

Classic. Hilarious.

That sort of experience happened to me when I was learning to slack at the Red Rocks thingy. It makes me shrivel to think about it, but what the hell eh?

One word for the poster though www.collegehumor.com post it. They'll probly take it. Also I don't spose you could email the larger file with sound to jmanlove@gmail.com could you? I've got to show this at a climbing club meeting.
