Note that Dean is
not tethered to the rope in any way.
This is a clip from the full
segment that the New York Times featured on Dean Potter and his
highline and base jump in Moab, Utah. In this clip, Dean
demonstrates staying in control while freesoloing the line, when
he 'catches' himself on the line before he leans too far over on
one side
(video above added 6/11/2009).
