In reply to Karl Bromelow:
I had just been climbing at Curbar, came home and noticed an old picture of him climbing at Curbar on instagram, saying he had died. Very sad but I suspect there was much more than we understand to a man who took such risks so willingly.
There was a note on Outside reporting the death
https://www.outsideonline.com/2015806/toby-benham-dies-rope-swing-accident that noted just how dangerous base jumping is.
Quite surprised this wasn't a news item on UKC considering how he shook things up on his visits here.
