Scary photo - have you a number on your back
No, that's not me.....
I will let you fill in the blanks Tony.....
@ N4LLY Hard to get a clear pic on my iPhone but I think you are in the rocks about a 1/3 of the way up and just off the edge on right side? JIM
I really loved looking at that picture!! It's wonderful. I had to call my wife over to the computer for her to look at it also. I told her what a remarkable picture it was and she agreed.
I think that you could have been shaking because you couldn't believe your good fortune. I know what you mean about being scared. All I could think of was that THIS was the start of MY FAMILY and I'd better GET IT RIGHT. One thinks of all the generations that went before him where families did what they had to do to get YOU where YOU ARE NOW. Now it's your turn. You're the man, the husband and hopefully, the father. It's your turn to keep the chain going, not to break the link. Millions of years have gone before you, but this is YOUR SPOT. How strong will your link be? Don't be nervous. Like hell! For the first time in my life, I almost completely lost my voice. My 'I DO' was barely audible. I never, ever thought a situation would affect me like that. If you said that that's what was going to happen to me, I would have called you a liar. But I can't deny it now. And I had a great time, and next September will be 20 years. I remember the first day like it was yesterday..... Frankie
PS. This was before my cataract operation and I had to wear glasses. I still have the same suit but it doesn't fit. I have lost a lot of weight to the extent that I can make two fists and place them against my stomach, one on top of the other and still have enough room to button the coat.

Two pictures together.....
A beautiful day, not much wind and boom this wave came from nowhere. If i had been knocked off there was no way back.

Though not scary as was my day job!

My goodness I wouldn't like to be you
That's scary
I don't have the picture on my phone however I went hiking in California a few years back and for those that don't know there basically a huge rock called half dome...

You can climb the top of this via this very very steep 'Ladder'

And then once at the top there a disgustingly exposed rock hanging over the edge, knick named 'the diving board', which is as much information you need to put you off haha.
This is just a Google image but it gives you an idea of the selfie I have somewhere....

Just looking at these photos
Make me feel hot and ill
That was very thought provoking Frankie but also funny at the same time, you certainly look a hell better for it though.
Thanks @ Shelly but I was wrong on two occasions. I did think that perhaps the shadow up top could be a person but I couldn't enlarge my iPhone screen enough without it blurring. Still, pretty scary situation @ N4LLY. We have a similar point in Peggy's Cove, NS where at least one person a year gets washed off the rocks and drowns so thank goodness you survived! JIM
Gary you had hair once !
