They're in it for the thrill

A climber takes on the jump at Tre Cime di Lavaredo, Italy. A party of climbers came face to face with this frightening leap of faith. The image was captured by Italian photographer Nicola Bombassei after he unexpectedly stumbled across the 3,000-meter high drop, at Tre Cime di Lavaredo, Italy. "The drop should have been fitted with a big wooden board over it, so that climbers can pass the cleft easily," Bombassei said. "But when we arrived we couldn't find the board anywhere, and it was never an option not to complete the climb, so we had no choice but to take on the jump." [Photo/icpress.cn]
