My personal message:

On Saturday 6th September 2008 i will attempt to prussik 1 mile to raise money for Cancer Research UK.

However, due to the lack of 1 mile long cave shafts in the world instead I will be climbing Titan 9 times, from the bottom to the surface each time.

This is equivalent to:

Ben Nevis (from sea level) - 1.2 times

El Capitain,Yosemite National Park - 1.8 times

The Petronas Towers, KL - 3.5 times

The Eiffel Tower, Fr - 5 times

Canary Wharf, London - 6.8 times

Humber Bridge tower - 10 times

London Eye - 12 times

Gaping Gill main hang- 16 times

Garlands Pot, Giants Hole - 229 times

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Cancer Research UK gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
