I saw that Kev.

It must have bust his strop anyway?

Who knows, but it would have been ugly.

He’s a very, very lucky boy.

It looked like he didn’t have a second of any description, nor a strop for saw. 
 

Not sure if it ‘adds’ or ‘detracts’ from the discussion here...

 

Like you, bloody lucky to survive

Anyone else seen the recent clip (US I think) of a climber cutting himself out with the top he was anchored into?

 

Hes survived (thankfully) with bumps and breaks. 
 

So notwithstanding the lapse in concentration that led to the accident, what might have been the effect it he’d had a second TiP? Pulled in half??

It would have either crushed his pelvis, ripped him in two or snapped the other anchor out and insult to injury a second top lands on him when he eventually hits the deck.
