it might've already been posted in an article or on here but can someone fill me in please? just curious. i saw a few photos of him with a sling on his right arm, and he had a bandage so i assume he had to have had an operation?

You forgot to perform a thorough inspection of the rope, Andy? That must have hurt!

That sucks. I have broken my left clavicle 5 times and it is really annoying. Hopefully it wasn't broken too badly, and In like 6 weeks it should be fine.

Hands down one of the dumbest drunk things I have ever done. Rope swing would put you like 30 feet up at the peak. I was wasted trying to be funny and I rode the rope over the water and back over land. Once I was back over land and I peaked out the rope snapped. I stayed in perfect rope swing form all the way to the ground. Broke my Clavical, 3 ribs, and knock my self silly. Actually it didnt hurt that bad then, thanks to alcohol. But the next morning at about 5am after 3 hours of sleep I woke up and thought I got hit by a truck. Straight to the E.R. due to the stabbing rib pains and the fact that I could see the break in my clavical.
