But... no safety hook to the cable? Standing free on 45 degree rock with a 1 mile fall on either side? What if your foot slips... just a little? It seems crazy. Do you really trust your old smooth worn-out sneakers that much?
@kckckc No posts! check my other video too. It is not nearly as bad as it seems. In fact, I think I prefer this mode, since you can move sideways a few feet, and stop to rest on little ledges along the way.

@Rep0007 No, no "safety hook". 99% of the Half Dome climbers go up and down without special equipment. I do like gloves on the way down, though.

No stakes?? You are brave. How was it without the stakes in the ground?
