Top ten sports which are incredibly awesome but I really can't even think about doing – #1: this.
I'm no expert by any means, but both being the subject and taking the photo are rated as "effing nigh impossible" on my personal scale ;)

Its a great photograph, but to be honest how the hell do people managed to climb these surfaces? There doesn't seem like there's anywhere to grip on to. I'm friends with a climber and I'm always amazed by their shear technical ability, it does make you wonder how skilled the photographer is.
