Dan Osman - Not Circus, but oh I just had to show it to you

This footage was a video linked at the end of something else I was watching and I had my heart in mouth the whole way through it so felt that I had to show it to you. This is Dan Osman free climbing Bear's Reach solo at speed - 400ft in 4 minutes 25 seconds up a vertical wall. That's pretty amazing. Dan was someone that pushed himself to the limit all the time and was know for his passion for extreme sports.



Sadly Dan died aged 35 in 1998 when his rope failed while performing a "controlled free-fall" jump from the Leaning Tower rock formation in Yosemite National Park, USA.
