Uhhhh uhhh.


And if those guys get caught the police are going to beat the bottoms of their feet with a rod of some sort, cause that's the way they roll over there.

Screw climbing.  This could be a little more electrifying!

Back when I was a young man and it was not a terrorist fearful America my buddy and I used to find and climb the highest objects we could find.  Towers, construction cranes we would sneak into highrise buildings and go swimming in penthouse pools.  I even sat on top of the red light on top of a construction crane once.  Figured no one will ever sit in the same place on the planet I did.

What was the motivator?  Boredom, not a ton of cash and we were a combination of extremely talented athletes and stupid as it gets.  To many stories to tell over that stuff.

I have never been afraid of heights, just falling from them.
