The angles he had on his "death triangle" aren't a big deal at all. Anytime you are rapping from anchors with your atc up close to the anchors you generate more inward force on the anchors than what he had. Nonetheless, he is definitely a bit much.

I think this one might be my favorite:

He says you might need to use pro when there aren't any "clips" in the rock, his example piece fails, and he manages to misspell chocks as "chalks" in the actual title of the video.

According to his company's website, he's free climbed in Golden, Boulder, and El Dorado Canyons in Colorado!
Wow, three whole places! I've done that in a weekend with 1pm alpine starts and a hangover.

Also, Golden isn't a canyon, it's a goddamn city (ever heard of banquet beer?), and it's Eldorado Canyon, not El Dorado.

Jerry needs to quit his job before he kills some poor, unexpecting schmuck.

Wow, I feel like a genius after watching that. If you think that guy is a moron you should meet my boss. He actually told me the best way to win the bid on a sealed auction was to put in a high bid and a low bid.
