It’s a mystery to me what this guy has to do with divesting assets or driving value through carve-outs, but what I can say is that:

Chalk related problems seem to be common in these things - check "Share investing and sport climbing" for some more of the same.

ps I’m prepared to award extra points for the daggy climbing pants, the holes in which are suggestive of a squeeze-chimney horror story at some time.
