Well worth looking up the (terrifying) foot slip video - an impressive catch and cool headed recovery.

I saw it pop up on social media yesterday, it's a proper heart in mouth moment. So impressive.

Not a foot slip. The pebble he's standing on breaks and he's left hanging open-handed on a three finger edge. He proceeds to one arm it, chalk and blow, and carry on.

In reply to Will Hunt:

OMG, good effort yoof!
