They must be nuts, I go up tower cranes to do inspections occasionally, that is with full harness, double lanyard etc....that scares me enough.

Daaaaaaaaaaaamn!
I was intrigued by him saying near the end, that he did feel fear on that bridge, but mentally turned it round, took control of his mind, and it became a pleasurable experience for him in the end. I think I could almost understand how he thinks about it all.
Still didn't stop my nuts from retracting every time they showed them hanging off the edge.

And me.
Horrible to watch. Saw the guy who did a backwards flip 200m up a tower in Ukraine.
Back to watching a movie.

Reminded me of that picture, which I always thought was a fake but it's not, of the builders having lunch on the girder above NYC. Which I thought was boggling until I saw the other less famous picture of the workers SLEEPING, yes, SLEEPING on the girder unharnessed! Unbelievable.
I instantly thought of this when I was watching the programme last night. Maybe a missed vocation for those guys who enjoy climbing up cranes with no harness??

Just me that would want to leap off?

Now you see, heights don't really bother me. But having almost given myself an accidental free colonic irrigation on a water slide in Dubai once (chaps: when they say keep your legs crossed...just...keep your legs crossed), I'm not sure anything could make me try this one, opening in Kansas City in May.

I would imagine that you would have to sign a waiver claiming that you are sane and of sound mind and know perfectly well what you are putting yourself through before being allowed to use that. That is fecking mental.
I said the same to my other half. If I was his mother I would allow him to carry on what he was doing on the proviso he left home to fend for himself. Doubt he would have time to be 'dicking about up cranes' without financial support from his Mum.
