00:15sharing ziplining horror stories because it was something i always wanted to do and everyone
00:20says hey if you're gonna zipline you gotta do it in costa rica the best ziplining you'll ever do
00:23yeah so i really was into it and then you swayed me a bit i truly will say yeah i'll admit you
00:29guys got into my head about ziplining where i was nervous about it and questioning whether or not
00:32i should do it but i'm like screw it let's only live once i i i said i want to do it immediately
00:39i don't want to be thinking all week worrying about should i zipline should i not zipline
00:43so day one you gotta let's go let's see if we can get in this morning so we got up and they're like
00:49oh see senor dave like it would it's like oh senor dave your zipline is already it's a wee bit shady
00:56of an operation oh you think like i just i was i don't know it's older right like the building was
01:02a little run down the platform when you get all dressed up was a little run down that didn't make
01:06me comfortable no now there's two ways that you can zipline right and you had you have they had
01:11to teach us okay so one is basically you cross your legs you sit back and you hold on to both of
01:17the lines with both hands and you just slide and the guy at the end you know gets you okay sounds easy
01:23easy the other one is you have to put on these the gloves gloves with leather thick leather on
01:30them you have to hold the rope same kind of position you're sitting legs crossed lean back
01:36hold the ropes one hand hold the the steel cable to slow yourself loosely so you but you have to like
01:43make a you know yeah like a fist around it yeah making sure that the leather part is touching not
01:50the other part because it'll burn your hand off yeah yeah yeah so the leather part is touching the
01:54steel cable and then when they let you know to stop you close your hand you physically stop to stop
02:01yourself with your hand i'm going the first option no no you there are some lines you had to do that
02:06oh the you some lines you did the this this two hand version other lines you had to stop yourself or
02:11you would have destroyed somebody can help me okay uh-huh there were 11 lines okay from like
02:21starting out at 50 feet to like 500 feet was the last one okay one i think it was like the middle
02:27fifth or sixth line i somehow turned around i got turned around backwards i was backwards oh no dave
02:35so dave is backwards i couldn't all flipped up i couldn't see the guy i finally got myself turned
02:43around and he wasn't just doing the slowdown he was then frantically doing that he's slow he's slow
