I've been indoor rock climbing before. I didn't really like it that much. It wasn't bad or anything though.

No, I did rock climb in my old elementary school once. We climbed sideways, if that makes sense...

You get used to harness and if you have a reliable partner it takes away any ear and its fun since it somewhat cooperative. Once you get into it it feels good to nail a hard course.

Yeah, I think the stuff we were doing was pretty easy. But yeah I was the guy letting the rope through or what not before and then he fell so we were both like swinging like 5 feet in the air.

Hey, what's not to like about all your weight being distributed over 2 straps at your groin while flailing around in the air. Its not just 2 little straps around your groin your supported by the rope and not to mention your harness is wrapped tightly around your waist. Your not really supposed to be flailing in the air while rock climbing anyway =P
