"Mr. Potter...Darwin's on the phone, he says it's urgent.... "

unless someone decides to take him out with sniper fire, Dean is pretty darn safe doing this. At this level of proficiency, if you fall off the line, you catch it. No big deal.


As crazy as it looks, this isn't even in the same zipcode as the free soloing and BASE/squirrel suit stuff he does.

The Dark Wizard. What a nickname. I usually think these kind of people are crazy, but for some reason this guys seems pretty cool to me.
