Abseiling –
(German ‘abseilen’ – to rope down)
an extreme sport, technique for

descending
using special tools and protection.

The technique was created
by Jean Esteril Charlet during climbing
Petit Dru in 1876. After lots of failures
he finally reached the summit in 1879.
This experience helped him to perfect
skill of abseiling.

Today it’s not only a sport. For example abseiling is also

used
by rescuers, special forces or
to wash the windows of high buildings.

Original technique was very different
from modern ones.
Method of Hans Dulfer is considered as classic.
Australian rappel and tandem rappelling is also popular.

Слайд 6

Professional climbers think abseiling is more dangerous than the climbing itself
because

a rope is carrying the climber’s weight all the time, not only in case of fall.
So doing this sport is prohibited in many areas.
Abseiling caused lots of injuries and death, but nothing can stop really brave people.
If you want to try this extreme sport,
all you need are the equipment,
a high wall and an instructor.
