Climber Narrowly Avoids Major Rockfall

  • 7 years ago

Mountaineer Stefan Barthel and his crew were developing new sports climbing routes in Spain when they captured this amazing moment. During a process called “bolting”, the man seen in video was clearing loose rocks when a major rockfall occurred.Luckily, the area is remote and no other people were around. While it is not common for such large rocks to become loose, proper safety precautions were taken and no one was hurt. Credit: Stefan Barthel via Storyful
