@@FallLineJP He wasn't even injured, walked away like nothing happened. It is Jules Lines and you can find videos of this fall in youtube.

I was todays years old when I learnt why climbers say "BETA" at the climbing gym.

I love this video!! How do we get on the discord? Also do you have a video talking about rope maintenance? As always love your stuff! I finally got my husband to start watching you now we can always reference stuff you do! I am not alone lol

Nice! The discord link is down in the description. Great tool for instant info and feed back. 🤙🏻

Wow, What a legacy! Thanks for the info, I had no idea.

Deeper lore: who the hell had a Betamax player back then?

I remember beta max my folks had it before vhs

Cool shit! I love learning the entomology of phrases.

I first thought it was Meta, and still use it because it makes way more sense

I was just wondering this the other day!

Thanks!

Good job explaining that history.. Jack was an old friend.

I work in a field that uses a lot of math and the 2nd greek letter is used for a lot of things. I have only ever known one old timer that said "beeta." That is all.

"BETA!" - Jesse Lee Peterson

They say "beeta" in the UK, I believe.

That was Jules Lines, underground British soloist, trying to solo an E9 (F8a). He walked away unscathed. His book Tears of the Dawn is pretty special.

Here's a comment for the algo

🤣 either way he got the FA on the word so we must follow in the same style.

I will actually tell you: Every specialization makes up it's own jargon so they can feel a part of something different and separate from the plebs. I got degrees in sociology and psychology, both sides made up words for the same stuff and then expected you to know the exact phrasing they use in that particular field. They both felt super knowledgeable when they knew their words. What it actually does is push novices away and scare people from the field or hobby entirely.

It's actually just to communicate more easily. We're usually more embarrassed to use jargon around newbies than haughty, because we know it sounds ridiculous, but it's useful.
