how high did he fall from?

Good timing.

He was just rounding the overhang when a foot slipped... clicked just at the right moment.
I like the idea of the guy watching him being a magician and casting a cruel spell...

I would like it more if the "magician" was giving him a helping hand and throwing him over the overhang!

They were nice guys.. they took the mickey out of us as we fumbled our way round the Goblin on the climb next to them...

The faller was hardcore... he made some sarcastic comment then went up it no bother...

Wow! Something you don't see very often - someone doing bold climbing! A bit like all the bouldering / soloing photos in On Peak Rock. No bouldering pads in them either! Bring back dangerous climbing I say! :-)

Is the magician Craig Watson? Who is flying?
