Anybody ever tried one of these?

This is a rock climbing Action man. The rock face attaches to the door with 6 clips and is about 4ft by 2ft. He can be controlled with the hand held remote in what ever direction you decide.

What you talkin' about, I own one of those!!! :D

It was stuck on my door for like a year. Finally got sent to the closet when mid doorjam travers I flailed and it became my spotter!! Still worked but I couldn't figure out a way to hang it from the door anymore.
I went through a lot of batteries with that thing! Amazingly entertaining when bored and/or drunk!! :twisted:

Great device for drinking games!! I only wish I was able to make one arm pull-ups and lock them off like he does! Great to watch him fall off, but give him a nice soft spot landing (forget the silly belay device!). Get one if you can, it is a riot

Oh my god look at where his toprope is running - looks like Action Man should have sought out qualified instruction before attempting this on his own. I don't even want to see what his anchor looks like!!! :shock:

Good call timmah! 10 bucks says he's got a death triangle, but hey, at least he's wearing a dome piece!
