He was an incredible climber. Too bad he died because of his obsession with jumping.
The scariest in the second vid was when he fell and all his protection started popping out until one finally held! Yikes!!

Did you see the 50ft waves off Shannon after the Hurricane last week? Where the hell did they find an Irish guy to surf that for the TV!?!??!

Q- You got his name wrong. It's not Dan Osman. It's Peter Parker.

When you dance with death on a regular basis, death almost always takes the lead.
Amazing man.

So, why does it say Dan Osman as the video title? I've seen Dan prior to these vid's and it looks just like him. Long dark hair and all...

I am really familiar with that first video, but I had no idea that he had died. That is sad, especially for his family. My perspective on risk taking changed a lot when kids came into the picture.
