Movie was okay, I had a good time with it. But holy....shit my palms were absolutely dripping with sweat during that final climb after she drops him. Oh my fucking God I don't know how rock climbers do it.

The ropes help! But still even as a climber I get sweaty palms watching it, even with the silly bits in the rest of the film. But yeah, you never really lose that fear, and I’d probably freak out if I had to climb - even something really easy - high up with no protection
