No thanks. I do thank those who engage in such activities. I get all the important effects from this vantage point.
There was a part of one of Gemmell's Waylander series where Waylander was explaining that fear of consequences stops many people from acting.
That vid was an absolute classic case in point.
Any of those rails and holy concrete etc. I'd walk across any day of the week...if they were under 5' from the ground.
It's exactly the same activity, using the same set of skills, but I don't think any of us would do that walk without clipping on.

That made me mildly queasy just watching the video. NO PLACE for a going-to-fat mid 50's me!
Still beautiful though.

What got me was, it appears the guy with the video camera was not hooked to the safety line. but I guess a lot of the time there isn't a safety line anyway!
Of course, the Japanise had to go one better!

Now the real video I want to see is the construction of the pathways (in the various forms). The wires and chains aren't so special. Spike and a hammer deal (you must have faith
) ..but securing a "structure" is another thing.
