Lover's Leap (Tahoe, CA) is a vertical granite cliff band which runs for about 2000 feet with heights between 250–600 feet.
Common to most Lover's Leaps there is a local legend says that two lovers from different Indian tribes that were at war with each other leapt to their deaths from the summit, rather than live without each other.
Stas Yurkevich went there this weekend. At first I was dumbfounded, since the routes there are only 5.5-5.10a. Even if Jane Yurkevich asked him for something, she wouldn't have been very impressed anyhow (see https://plus.google.com/112065430692128821190/posts/FiNgnbdXaKN)
At first I though, maybe he was doing it blindfolded with his hands behind his back or something. Then I came across this footage of Dan Osman (RIP)

One of the comments:
It must have been hard for him to climb that with his basketball sized nuts
Update: Found further info

Just like I thought, typical Yurkevich behavior: started at 5.10a(R), 3 hour route, lost his way at the first 5.9 left turn, wandered aimlessly to the top, undoubtedly wondering "what kind of 5.10a people rate these days", finished at the top in 55 min.

Choice quote: Yesterday we climbed something on Lover's Leap East Wall.... I missed a left turn ... and climbed a cozy dihedral all the way up and slightly right. On our way up we found some (3 or 4) escape slings. Some of them looks really scary, I'd better climb the dihedral up unprotected rather then rappel from such an "anchor". Higher I climbed things got tougher and tougher....Just above the ledge there was an inhospitable looking roof....
