So we have a show coming up at our school that we try to make as fun as possible, being the the audience is almost all students. The adults that usually over see our work don't really care what we do for this production (lighting, sound, projection, rigging). So I was approached by the student director today and asked if we could have people rappel in. I was kind of jumping with joy (because I have ALWAYS wanted to fly someone), but common sense said, "That would be Dangerous or Expensive". I ended up saying, "Ill see what I can do."
So my question is how (un)safe is it to have people rappel from a pipe. I have all of the proper harnesses, ropes, and equipment for ascending and descending, I just wanted to know how others felt about actually connecting it to a pipe.
