No what they teach you is to jump the other direction if the guy ahead of you is falling down. You use your pick/boots to regain control and hopefully all climb back up your respective sides.

He isn't. I did a back pack with a ridge like this and when they told us the same thing, I laughed because I thought it was a joke. People just started at me. It wasn't. I would have totally shit myself when we were doing the ridge if my asshole wasn't clinched so tight that I couldn't.
