One of the best vids on youtube ever. Those kids are wrong in the head. What makes it all the more amazing is that the kid doing the pullups isn't even THAT confident in doing them, it doesn't even look like he can manage more than 5 and yet he is doing them over a 100 odd metre drop yikes

I hate that pic, it makes me thing of the people that jumped out of the twin towers.
Jesus....they looked into that void...and jumped.
Thats actually the top of the Empire State Building, but still, valid point frown.

good to be able to browse the photos, some look good, some do not smile

must have closed the browser before posting last time

used to be really not good with heights and then went on some hang gliding course at edale, being 500 foot up and the realisation that you could fail badly, made it much less of an issue

doubt i would go abseiling down some building, but it helps smile

ok a tall building

I was once scared of heights ,

I was cured when I was promoted to a derrickman on an oil platform , the derrickman at the time attached a lean out rope to my harness got me to lean out on the ""monkey board "" ( 95' }then when i was leaning over the void at 45 degrees.......he let go of the lean out line ..I fell forward a few inches ....twas a real time brown trouser moment...but it cured me

I was rediculously scard of heights, even an 8 foot ladder i wasnt keen on. Once I have had laser eye surgery and no longer wear glasses Im still wary but will do things Ive never dreamed of before, going over the Avonmouth bridge in Bristol and leaning over the edge and so on. It must have been because I was scared of my glasses falling and leaving me stuck not being able to see anything that scared me and I didnt realise it.
