Just be glad he didn't let losse the Kracken!

I'll be that woman was a bit thor after the fall.

hope she gets thome athprin.

BoBo unimpressed....

Usually he just turns into a swan and rapes them. I'd say she got off lucky.

1,000 ft != 300 ft. Just FYI.

Hephaestus feels her pain.

tudorgurl: BoBo unimpressed....

Came here for a Clash reference, left satisfied.

Mentat: Usually he just turns into a swan and rapes them. I'd say she got off lucky.

Unless she was a furry, then she missed out big time.

After RTFA it happened in Utah.

They didn't have any crampons? Bloody shame.

oh god I feel so stupid.

*backs out slowly*

He was also into golden showers

I think even Zeus might have thought twice before going after a furry.

Now it was 1000 feet. Zeus was pissed.

Who says it was Zeus? My money's on Hera...

She's a real biatch. Zeus just probably sent out for a call girl, Hera got wind of it and laid down the pwnage...

Sure it wasn't Hera that got angry?

Shut your whore mouth when gods are talking.

AvaFark: 1,000 ft != 300 ft. Just FYI.

Yeah, how does subby know she was dead for the last 700 feet?

Over Mt Olympus?

No, I don't think I'll ever get over Mt Olympus.

Oh, the FARKline made me think that some stupid chick stood up on a roller coaster again...

You know who else angered Zeus?

"It was just a horrible scenario, a bad deal," he said.

Wonder why they print quotes like that? It's not really rocket surgery to figure that part out. It might be newsworthy if he'd said 'fark her if she can't take a joke. I didn't like her anyway, but I've had my eye on her two kids."... but they hardly ever say that.

It's like when a weather report says to be aware of frigid temperatures during the snowstorm tonight, or witnesses reported that the 12 car pileup was horrendous. Ya think, Sherlock?

Not really sure why but this is the first thing I thought of.


/Are you the Key master?

Really? I thought of God Of War II.

Wanted for questioning.

AvaFark: 1,000 ft != 300 ft. Just FYI.

I was told there would be no math.

Sheesh...

I just went up Grandeur Peak today with my girlfriend and we didn't even think about crampons..

I haven't had the chance to hike Mt. Olympus yet but it is on the to do list.. Sad..

Oh and the entire time I was reading the article I couldn't help but think about the episode of Family Guy where Peter claims to be Poseidon and then Poseidon shows up and says " No your not, and you know nothing of what I do.." or something like that...

/Full Suspension is good.
//time for bed

VanBurenBoys: Sheesh...

I just went up Grandeur Peak today with my girlfriend and we didn't even think about crampons..

After googling I'm very surprised and relieved crampons have nothing to do with insertion into the genitalia

I can understand trying to get out there and push the envelope a little. But to put yourself in a position to fall however many feet and then actually falling to your death is quite another.

Unless you are after the world championship for a million. Is it worth risking your life?

Usually you have to do something pretty awesomely bad, like ripping off Apollo's chariot or trying to gain entry into Olympus itself before Zeus hurls you from the top.

I'm guessing Hera caught the Big Guy giving her the once-over as an eagle or something and cut her anchor.

Woman angers Zeus, who smites her and sends her falling 300 feet to her death on Mt. Olympus.

What was she doing 300 feet above Mt. Olympus?

...once i had a good fly
into the mountain
i will fall.

Bit'O'Gristle: What was she doing 300 feet above Mt. Olympus?

Over Mt. Olympus?

Well since the choice was between that, or Zeus turning into a bull and having sex with her, well I think we can all admit that neither of those are particularly high on our list of ways we'd like to go out.

/took the bait -- hook, line and sinker

Zeus apologizes, he accidentally knocked the woman down when he was playing: Link (new window)

Hector Remarkable: AvaFark: 1,000 ft != 300 ft. Just FYI.

Yeah, how does subby know she was dead for the last 700 feet?

Unless it was... MURDER! Da-da-dum!

"Smite me, O mighty Smiter!"

thisispete: Hephaestus feels her pain.

Came here to say this.

/DRTFA
/I'll be interested when the woman turns into a lame smith-god.

Submittard sucks at reading comprehension. The fall was 1000 ft, not 300 ft. The correct headline is even front page on Yahoo news.

Pretend quote from Holding while getting equipped:"Crampons and rope are too expensive, not to mention a qualified mountaineer. We'll be fine."

FTFA: Holding is the son of billionaire Earl Holding, the owner of Sinclair Oil Corp., the Little and Grand America hotels, Sun Valley ski resort in Idaho and Utah's Snowbasin resort.

How could anyone anger Zeus? He's just too cute.

/Yes, his name really is Zeus..
//Old pic, but you get the idea.

AR55: After RTFA it happened in Utah.

What a Zeus might look like...

My headline was better.

"Hiker falls to her death from Utah's Mount Olympus. Mormon Zeus wanted for questioning"

Mt. Olympus has a series of ravines which hold snow fields for an extraordinarily long time. I tried climbing it in May one year and came to a rather wide snow field that ended in a field of 6 to 10 foot boulders several hundred feet down. The snow was very hard and compacted and we didn't have any crampons or ice axes because it's in the middle of a freaking desert so it would have been a long slippery slide of death to the bottom. I ventured out a few feet on all fours and it was even worse than it looked. Though we were over an hour into the climb we had no trouble turning back and driving up Little Cottonwood and hiking up to Dog Lake instead.

You heard they are testing a new kind of coaster train on Raven. Also, coming out for the Terminator grand opening?

Not obscure. Great song.

Dude, you are never going to become a Fark headline if you behave like that. Never.

Very apt name for the mountain.
