It was a popular musical group in the 70's. They sang that song that goes:

Nobody gets too much heaven you know
'Cause it's higher than a mountain and harder to climb ---

And if that song didn't get stuck in your head, try this one:

Love is like Oxygen
You get too much you get too high
Not enough and you're gonna die
Love gets you high

anyone mistakenly berate their poor belayers after taking a hefty fall, like you pulled them 10-15 feet off the deck (turning what you thought was going to be a 15-footer into a 30 footer) and you thought they were just sleeping on the
job :oops:

so your just talking about whippers in general? Man I took the biggest one to date at the Shady Grove about a month ago. I was at the top of Which is Which on my redpoint burn. I made a long reach for a huge jug(one that has a lot of chalk on it and that I had used two other times before), more like a ledge, matched on it and then it broke! I fell about 30+ feet, nothin but air and the giant hold smashed on the ground well away from anyone at the base. Good thing that wall in super overhanging...the sound a huge hold like that makes when it break is somehting I will never forget...freaky!
