Poor sloth. Just hangin’ out and minding its own business.

And lucky boy. Sloths (slothe would be better, no?) have wicked claws - quite visible in the video - and can use them to good effect.

I have to admit, when I ziplined in that region it would have never crossed my mind that this could have happened. But seeing the video it makes perfect sense that a sloth would find it appealing.
Less happily, some sloths crawl out onto electrical lines there. I saw a few of those victims in an animal rescue.

OH man, glad the Sloth and the Kid seem ok.
The kid said he “clocked him right in the face.” So looks like a bit of a kurfuffle at the least.

Yeah, I thought Wrath or Gluttony would be my undoing, but for sure it’s gonna be Sloth.

I would choose Sloth, but I can’t be bothered. Gen X, eh?

Having just gone zip lining yesterday in Mexico, I would like to announce that no sloths were harmed.

“warned the boy not to break…” not to brake, you mean? spelling does count.
