Flying through the air with just your arm strength holding onto a rope can be quite freeing. Even the satisfaction of splashing down into a cool mountain lake can be quite refreshing. But if you are not careful, you could end up smashing your face into the cliff side or smacking your butt on the rocks below. Either way, things could go bad fast.

Apparently the world’s largest rope swing is in Utah on a 130-foot-tall sandstone arch called Corona Arch. Recently a 22 year old guy was killed when something went wrong. He underestimated his rope length and slammed into the rocky floor beneath. Of course this isn’t your normal backyard rope swing like most of these videos. But it is still a pretty big fail.
