00:00:00
There are definitely moments where we
00:00:02
could have died. Like if we went down it
00:00:04
we would be dead. It was rocky so like
00:00:07
there was rocks and trees at the bottom
00:00:10
of this waterfall and our boat
00:00:14
lodged up against two rocks between the
00:00:17
waterfall. So it was the boys were on
00:00:19
the middle of the waterfall and our boat
00:00:21
was like lodged up in in the middle of
00:00:23
it. We like they launched us out of
00:00:25
their boats and so there was four of us
00:00:27
standing on the middle of this rock on
00:00:29
sunset with our boats down the bottom of
00:00:32
the waterfall because they'd fallen
00:00:33
down. With the PLB everything in the
00:00:36
boats that we couldn't get. So we were
00:00:39
like what the heck are we going to do?
00:00:41
Like we It was pretty scary. Like it
00:00:44
doesn't sound too scary but it was like
00:00:46
it was one of the scariest moments of
00:00:48
our lives. So Dean like horizontally
00:00:51
jumped over the waterfall into like the
00:00:54
moving water and like swam out into
00:00:57
uh into the shore.
00:01:00
And then we luckily had our paddles so
00:01:02
we he like put out his paddle and Finn
00:01:06
jumped and grabbed the paddle and yeah
00:01:08
he got yanked to the other side. So then
00:01:10
it was just Siar and I on this water on
00:01:12
this rock. And I'm bad at swimming in
00:01:16
general and so I was like I can't do
00:01:18
this.
00:01:19
And he's like well you have to. So I
00:01:21
remember just Siar picking me up and
00:01:23
literally throwing me and I like just
00:01:26
caught the paddle and they pulled me
00:01:29
pulled me out into the side of the the
00:01:31
river and it was we were like really
00:01:33
shaken up and we had to walk all through
00:01:36
the night with our wet clothes and
00:01:39
that was definitely like a moment where
00:01:42
we were like wow we that could have been
00:01:44
deathly.
00:01:45
>> Yeah. Most sane people at this point
00:01:47
would be like okay let's
00:01:49
let's tap out.
00:01:50
>> Yeah.
00:01:51
>> Let's tap out of this ravine and
00:01:53
regroup. Do you Yeah what's your
00:01:55
relationship like with risk and fear?
00:01:57
>> Um I kind of love it. I
00:02:00
I mean I
00:02:03
sometimes don't like it in the moment
00:02:04
like the last few months ago I did this
00:02:06
massive mission around Mount Cook and
00:02:08
there was multiple sections where I was
00:02:11
well outside my comfort zone. Like rock
00:02:13
climbing with no ropes and things like
00:02:16
that. But I said to mom I said I'm sorry
00:02:18
but I really want to keep doing things
00:02:20
like that because I just feel like
00:02:22
Ah, I just love it. I don't know why. I
00:02:24
just
00:02:26
the fear
00:02:27
Um I I don't know. There's just I can't
00:02:30
explain the feeling but I just love that
00:02:32
feeling of fear and risk and definitely
00:02:35
I won't push myself out
00:02:37
side where I'm might die.
