Thread: Holy crap...

    Skydiving is on my list of things to do but... Just looking at that video made me break out in shivers and stress-sweat. No safety measures basically the whole way. And then when he's on top still nothing--A stiff breeze could've blown him off. No way.

    Why do they keep taking the video down?

    I could barely watch that tower video, you could not pay me enough to do that.

    Here's a link that is still alive:

    'bah drama queens' was my initial thought upon reading the thread ... while i was waiting on top of the stairs inside voa till raid was ready. until i started to watch the vid, then looked down on my wow screen and quickly ran off the stairs

    found another link by searching youtube... OMFG.

    I would probably be able to get to the top, but there would never ever be a single second that I didn't have at least one safety line securely attached.

    I also consider myself a reasonably-manly man and got sweaty palms after a few seconds, then stopped it and closed the window about halfway thru the 7 min video. N F-ing way would I do that without using safety gear.

    The link of the basejumpers seemed a lot more sane/reasonable than this moron climbing with no usage of safety gear.




    At least falling from 1768 feet he'll have time to call his lawyer and dictate a will before he goes splat :P
