Is rock climbing scary

Answer 1

Ice climbing because rocks have a harder and more reliable surface. Ice can easily melt and collapse when you put a pic through it. Also, the heavier you are the easier it would be for ice to collapse.

Answer 2

Depends on if you follow normal safety procedures or not.

I climb all the time. Neither me nor any of my friends have ever suffered more than a few scratches (which are more often caused by plant life on the hike there than the actual climbing). No matter how good you are, you will get scratches - some rocks are real pointy. :-)

If you don't know what you are doing, you can easily kill yourself. Even if you do know what you're doing, broken ankles sometimes happen. I think that is probably the most common rock climbing injury.

Go with someone experienced and wear a helmet and don't stand under the climber if you can help it - if a chunk of gets knocked off by a climber, it wont care if your safety conscientious or not. Even small rocks draw blood.

Answer 3

If you are afraid of heights, like me, rock climbing will be scary, but I found as I continued with climbing my fear decended. So, just keep climbing until your comfortable enough.

If you have no rope, you could die from a fall. If you are attached to a rope, very slim.

Answer 5

Gravity is probably the most dangerous factor in climbing.

Answer 6

you might fall
