These guy's videos have my hands sweating just watching them.

Too close to a recurring dream for me. :sweatdrop

All good fun til someone loses an eye!

Same. My hands sweat just watching, I couldn't hold on

Did a stint with my old man as a high rise window washer when a teen, but we had gantrys and harnesses(most of the time) and that was bad enough. Even being in a tower crane feels safeish. Cannot imagine the shaking my legs would be doing if I tried some of those stunts. :sweatdrop

Was too busy analysing if it was photoshopped or not, but looks real.
No fear of heights here but admit to a slight quiver from the legs in some places when you realise the risk level.
A friend of mine is so bad she couldn't even watch me leaning over the edges at Castlepoint for wave photos. She's kinda local though and knows how many people have lost their lives there over years...

the number of people who die on "death climbs" is less than those who do regular like.

free climbing, slack lining, tight roping.... heaps do without "safety"

also, you can die falling 3m, which is far less epic.

Put the glue bag down, no one said anything about death

It's the faith in engineering that gets me. Some of that metal weren't too robust to my eye.:shit:

An adventurous mate told me a good story about his visit to a Himalayan monastery where he got caught short. The monastery was built out off a huge cliff, like Himalayan epic cliff & the dunnies were at the edge of the building. Holes in the floor with no bar to hang on to, just drop your kecks & put your feet either side. The plumbing was gravity based & consisted of a jobbie free fall to the valley floor, far, far below, intermittently masked by cloud & the odd vulture soaring below your nethers. He reckons it took awhile to get the job done and snow flurry's blasting up through the hole mid squeeze did not help.

Yeah, nah. Not my cup of tea.

...knows how many people have lost their lives there over years...
or, did they?

That's gay

Dunno that I'd drop off to do chin ups, but never had an issue with height.

[AllanB]

Yeah and then there will be a article about the poor guy falling off something and some sobbing partner saying how nice he was and how unfair it was ...........

[awa355]

Not the fall that hurts, just the stop at the bottom.

[avgas]

It gives me the heebie jeebies looking at it.

R650R I can vouch for the photo. Chinese are fookin nuts when it comes to stuff like that.
While in Shanghai, I looked out my apartment window on the 27th floor to see another dude standing on a 4x1 about 26 floors up. If I can dig up the photo will post it here. He was casual as.

...safe as a house, mate...?
