DC 15 Checks

I've got a question about the skill system.

Page 66 states: "DC 15. It takes someone special to accomplish these tasks. Examples: leaping the gap between two city roofs, hurling a log at an oncoming bear, or grabbing a pouch lashed to the saddle of a galloping stallion."

I assume the above examples could be attempted under the ruling :"if the skill is something that any adult could have a reasonable chance of attempting, then any character canmake a trained skill check". And that's a 1d20 roll yes?

If not, they'd be rolling a 1d10 and would not be able to attempt those actions.

Yup, your average healthy adult can jump, throw and grab, so d20 it is.
