The 8-year-old rock climber with the middle-name 'Adventure'

The Debrief

Thursday, 28 November 2024 - 42 minutes

Would you let your 8-year-old child climb a 914m rock? 

Dane and Lucy hear from Joe Evermore and his son Sam Adventure, the kid who rock climbed Yosemite's El Capitan at just 8 years old. Some say its extreme and dangerous parenting, others say it's just the right dose of adventure. 

Plus, 50% of men believe they could land a plane if they needed to, we speak to a pilot to see how difficult it really is. And we talk about the bridesmaid who didn't attend her best friend's wedding because she wasn't allowed to bring extra food for her bulking-up diet.
