  • You got it?
  • Yeah.
  • All right.

[dramatic percussion music]

  • [grunts]
  • Step. There you go. Good.

This 200-foot descent down a canyon wall is all that stands between us and our extraction point.

  • Oh my god.
    But for newly engaged couple Caitlin Parker and Bobby Bones, this is proving to be the ultimate test.

  • Keep it flowing through your hand.

  • My hand is just cramping up. Oh, gosh.

  • I'm losing you.

  • Oh my god. [vocalizes] [dramatic music]

(WHISPERING) You're fine. Stay cool.

  • You got this.
  • You're doing great, Caitlin. Straight down from there.

[dramatic music]

  • [vocalizes]

  • There you go.

  • Am I almost there?

  • You are so nearly there. It's the last bit. It's the easy bit now.

  • That's what I'm talking about.

  • OK.

  • Better brace yourself. There you go. Great job. Really good.

[dramatic music]
[laughs] Well done, [inaudible].

That cliff is a lot scarier than getting married in a few months. A lot scarier. I was terrified.

  • We're really proud of you. I mean, good job. How was Bobby's coaching?

  • Good. He was scared for me.

  • Yeah.

  • To see her go off the edge of that cliff-- I am so proud of her. I have never seen her as terrified as she was, and scared, just crying. It hurt my heart. But it made me even more proud to see her go off, because she didn't let fear hold her back.

Hey, here's the thing. I'm scared as crap, too, but someone’s got to grab the role with, "hey, I got you." Who would have thought it would be me? I'm the biggest weenie baby in the world. Now I've got to go off the edge of this thing. I don't want to do that. But I want to get down and see her. I'm coming for you, Caitlin. I don't like the [? sight of it, ?] but I cannot wait to see you.

Holy crap. I just looked down. [inaudible]

[dramatic music]
[exhales]
[dramatic music]

  • Can you hear me?

  • I can now.

  • You're doing great.

  • Thank you.

  • You're welcome.

  • Am I straight? Am I going OK?

  • Yeah. Yeah. You're at that last little bit.

  • [exhales]

  • You're almost there.

  • You'll have 10 feet. Here we go.

  • [exhales]

  • Yep, yep. Good job.

I focused, I got down, I'm proud. My butt is tired, but I'm here.

  • OK. So look, from here we're going to sneak away around here and head down to the river.
  • Nice job, babe.
  • Thanks.
  • You did it.
  • Yeah.
  • Are you proud?
  • Yeah.
  • Yeah. Heck, yeah, you are. Like, I could not be prouder and more in love with you right now.
  • Thank you.
