Must have had a lot of lean away from the camera the way it fell (and the way the guy climbed)

Makes you wonder, climbing gear or not, that tree failed.
Click to expand...
that was my first thought.

I will say this, that guy had no fear and sure got up in that tree pretty fast. Guess all that safety gear just slows a person down. And he was successful. That no kite will ever get caught in that tree again.
