You miss the ledge and continue to fall, and everything falls with you. You see your bag hit a river below you and the bloody rope falls beside you. It takes nearly nine seconds to hit water and the impact feels like being slammed against a rock solid wall. You do your best to fight to the surface of the river. When you emerge from the rapids, your lungs burst out, swallowing as much air as it can fill but a wave covers you and pushes you back under the water. You kick your feet and come to the surface again, but you can do nothing to stop the flow of freezing water rushing you downstream. You struggle to keep your head out of water and you glimpse a rock to your far right.
