At one point Dave almost says, 'You find..' then changes to 'I would find..' when he realizes his personal experience cannot be generalized safely. He then goes back to 'You...' But it seems reasonable to say that everyone has personal limits, and reactions to situations vary.
Why not ask him about everything positive in his life rather than the negative which is what everyone wants to hang on too. If you want to learn about accidents, read the yearly journal "Accindents in North American Mountaineering", rather than sensationalize an unfortunate experience.
This assumes that a challenging experience is “negative“, whereas we often can take away very positive things from scary/struggling times. Dave exemplifies that in this interview, as well as the full podcast conversation, which is around three hours long. In that he also shares plenty of “positive“ Experiences from his life as well. Hope you enjoy the full conversation!

I use watching videos of Dave’s climbs to figure out if I’ve used enough antihydral
😂
The Darwin dixit video is a classic testpiece
Dave talks about eating burger patties and a near death experience in exactly the same tone, what a legend! 🤣
Haha- totally

He’s so thoughtful with how he presents info. Check out the full interview on the podcast if you’d like more amazing stories and insights 💪
That felt quite intense, what a cool understatement
No matter how close to fear you’ve felt comes close to something that’s happened to your children says it all, ❤
Write a biography Dave
He has a new book in the works but it’s not a bio. I agree he should write one! Amazing stories.
@@thestruggleclimbingshow yea I can’t wait for it! But he’s full of these amazing stories and I bet there’s a wealth more we haven’t heard
I can't seem to find this particular episode on Spotify?
Coming out soon!
Sounds like he went over Tower Scoop 😬
great interview as always man.
Much appreciated!
Dave thought he was gonna die? Crazy...
😅

@@thestruggleclimbingshowThe way Dave deals with fear by preparation and mitigates risk is really useful advice
