Dan Osman: Master Of Stone


Dan Eugene Osman
(February 11, 1963 – November 23, 1998)

an American extreme sportpractitioner, known for the dangerous sports of "free-soloing" (rock climbing without ropes or other safety gear); and "rope jumping" (falling several hundred feet from a cliff then being caught by a safety rope), for which his record was over 1000 feet / 304.8 meters. He was known for living a bohemian lifestyle, rarely working, and living in a tree house for months at a time.
