Default RE: Dumbest/Funniest thing you've ever done in the woods.

ok i didnt want to tell this one but i guess i will.

i was bow hunting out of my climber. it was my second year to bow hunt and my first year in a climber. i was really little (like 75 lbs) so my harness was big but it was tight. there was alot of slack in the belt connecting meto the tree. i was hunting on my buddies property and we were about half mile from each other. i was just getting settled in when i realized that i needed to get my release which was in my backpack behind me in the tree. i stood up and turned around. im still not sure how i did it but i managed to jiggle the bottom of my climber loose. so down it went followed shortly by me. somewhere in this process my foot got tangled in the harnes slack and i hung upside down in the tree.my buddy seemed pissed when he walked up to me screaming like a little girlbut soon laughed when he actually saw me. i was not happy. thank god i was only hanging upside down for about 15 min. i honestly though i was going to die. he got me down and we laugh about it every time we set up stands. i havent hunted in a climber since. lock-ons only
