The climbing prodigy Tito Traversa has died after three days in a coma, as a result of a ground fall at the crag in Orpierre. He was together with his sports team. Apparently, he used a rack of quickdraws that was not his, which were incorrectly assembled.
Upon rappelling down, he fell to the ground from a height of 17 metres and he was immediately brought to the hospital in Grenoble.
We wishes to express our condolensces to the family of Tito, and we hope that this accident will help to raise awareness so that similar things never happen again.
