just been trying to look into it - its just a rumour and i want to find out if its true. There are currently people saying its true and folk saying it bollocks put out to create bad press - so im in no way saying its happened. So dont panic!

The badly translated version I have read suggests that the anchor point on the zigzag broke which I find very hard to believe under normal circumstances. I'm sure the full story will come out eventually, in the meantime I have no qualms about carrying on using mine :)

 

Quite right

 

If I had read such a badly translated message telling me I had won 50 million quid,I would be just as unlikely to beleive it.

WARNING IMPORTANT! ACCIDENT WITH ZIGZAG!!

Today 15:22 am by HOLGER

 

I just received the message that a crash related to the PETZL ZIGZAG has occurred!

Thomas Bohl, head of the FSB Oerrel was a few hours ago called directly from the victim ... so it's not a rumor!

The climber, an employee of the city of Celle with its brand new ZIGZAG crashed from 5 meters because the TOP GOLDEN attachment loop is broken ... so free fall!

The climbers it goes under the circumstances .... seriously injured but he is not sure in medical treatment.

 

Is exactly clear up the situation, one should refrain from using the device ... that also please give out to all the users of which you know that they use the best ZIGZAG ... immediately!
