Linda?[edit]
The official Samurai Girl website at ABC family lists Stacy Keibler's character's name as Karen. Why is it listed as Linda here?Eternallyjess (talk) 03:13, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
Carabiners ?[edit]
In the plot summary it says "two of the Carabiners break free pulling Jake and Severin down". I'm going to be pedantic and say that it's not the carabiner that were the problem, it's the cam that is wedged into the rock that the ropes are attached to. This can also be heard in the dialogue at the time where Jake says:
"The cams not going to hold the both of us"
It's also unrealistic that the cams would just break free of the rock like they do, typically the only reason a cam would break out is if the rock around the crevice also broke allowing the cam to come free (which can't be seen in the video). The other possibility is that the cam itself was faulty or not placed properly.

On a slightly related topic, it's also fairly easy to see that some of the "rocks" they are using for holds are the fake sort that you see in indoor rock climbing locations, especially the one Heaven has her hand on at the top before she slips.
