Dynamik Adventures came to Warsaw Sunday offering the opportunity for people to rappel down the building at 122 S.Buffalo St.or ascend it. By the end of the day, five people took the class and four others rappelled without the class. The building is about four stories high, or approximately 65 feet. Brant Upchurch and Eric Bishop, partners in Dynamik Adventures, began the day with a class on rappelling down and ascending a building.Ultimately, Bishop said, each person is responsible for their own safety.When learning the skills necessary for rappelling, a person should never feel dumb about asking a question. "It's your life," said Upchurch. "In rappelling," said Bishop, "there are numerous ways to get down a rope safely." There are at least four types of descenders that help control the rate at which a person goes down, including Figure 8's, automatic tension controls, bars and mechanical clamps.
