Looks like this is the biggest one, but pretty dead unfortunately.

I've heard this phrased before as "why are there so many engineers in climbing?" And most people say "something something puzzles." I then present my theory that the reason is that engineers are a bunch of nerds with poor social skills, and climbing gives them an easy way to socialize

    Thanks.

    I guess everybody is different. I’m a natural introvert that excels at extroversion due to my past. So for me it wasn’t the social thing and in fact I had a hard time getting my friends to climb so had to find a climbing group.

    What hooked me about climbing is that it’s a rare sport where I lose myself and my mind goes quite. Like nothing other than guitar practice makes my mind shut up so once I found that I was hooked.
