Adrenaline is a substance that is injected in the body often becomes detrimental to health. We can say without fear that the extreme sport is an addiction to the chemical that causes dependence. This drug is injected into the body through sports. Those who practice sports is an addiction that puts life at risk constantly. The extreme sport and can lead to death is sin.

According to Elisha Frech, climbing instructor and guide in the region and maintains a mountain retreat in the "past year she had to be rescued in the little chest ..."

A preliminary inspection of the equipment carried by the climbers did not reveal any failure or disruption on the rope or rappel device on which remained fastened to the climber's harness. Due to the lateness of the hour, it was not possible to inspect the protections still on track to see if there was a failure somewhere.

By the account of the climbers who were on the wall along with Chang, the more likely it is that the rappel was done with the aid of a ruptured or cordim that node whose closure is opened.

However, the information diverge. According to police, which resulted in the fatality was the rope that would have burst when the rappel.
