Oh man! I ran laps on this thing a couple months ago. 5 times in a row. Wonder if it's harder now?

Whoops!
I was always a bit nervous climbing under that thing, even on TR it seemed to have the potential to severely inconvenience...
Someone pulled the ~2'x2' flake off the bottom of U. Santa Clara Practice Climb down the road at Summit Rock a few years ago (at least I assume it didn't part company with the rock without some help). We found it at the base and carried it back out to the car; my bearded dragons used it as a basking rock.

Haha!! That thing always freaked me out.
Hope nobody was hurt.
EDIT: It's gotta be harder now, people would use the crack (where it sheared off) as hands.
