The champions HEWC the book

Smiling and turning the other
cheek seems to be the best strategy, but in turn this wears on your
relationship with yourself. Am I crazy? Do I have a death wish? How am I
still even alive!? Let me put it to you this way, have you ever been asked
the question, “What would you do if you only had a month to live?” Well,
Ive dealt with that question every month for over 5 years. And when you
have a relationship with death like that, seeing people die, loosing
friends, seeing brutal injuries, it really makes how you live your life
everyday different from the people around you. And that is difficult, and
terrifying.
6. What is the funniest/weirdest thing that has happened to you whilst
doing this sport professionally?
I would say the weirdest thing that has ever happened to me manifested
from the 2010 G.G.B.Y. (Gobble Gobble Bitches Yeah!~) November highline
meeting in Moab UT. I was in the midst of training the free solo world
record and I was training a lot. I was ahead of schedule for free soloing
a highline once a week, and I had been doing this for over a year at that
point. When you are training to free solo a line you can stair step
yourself up mentally to the solo. You can do this by tying in the leash to
your waist(called a swami) with no harness on. This gives you a higher
consequence if you fall and miss the line, but not death just pain. Also,
you usually don’t fall, but the fear of the idea of falling is what you
are trying to train to combat. After you tie it to your waist, you can tie
it to your ankle-- this is called a ball and chain. Even more consequence
of a fall, but not death. And after your ankle I thought... you can tie it
to your cock and balls. So I did. I got naked at the festival, tied my
x-girlfriends leash to my balls (not purposefully,) and walked across the
highline in what i was laughing about calling “Balls and chain.” I couldn’t
decided if falling and having my cock and balls ripped off before i fell to
my death was worse, than falling and having my cock and balls hold me under
the line, attached to a leash, stretching slowly as I awaited rescue... I
cleared that from my mind as I smiled and my friend snapped a photo of me
finishing the line. And ever since that day, that full frontal nude shot of
me has circled the globe!
