bummer dude, but it would not be fun if it were not for the fear factor, unfortunately these things happen sometimes, you ever get to send it afterwards?

@bender82801 Thanks for your comments bender. I believe Clint had climbed this one before. I think climbing would be even more enjoyable without the danger. The danger is just one small part of it all.

That crack looks nice and parallel; no reason why the gear wouldn't hold unless it was a shit placement, flaring crack or really shallow. Which was it?

@hajenchri There are more ways for gear to fail then what you have listed. I think a contributing cause to this failure was the smoothness of the crack. The friction coefficient might not have been high enough for the cam to work.
