I'm afraid of heights so that was really difficult to watch

at first when they were in the larger part of the tower I was like (oh that's not so bad seems kind of tranquil) but then when they had to go up that tine ladder I was like "hooooolyyy shit!".



I have heard that the people that do this kind of stuff get paid really, really, really well.

I'm fine with heights, but I'm with Lummy on this one. It looked downright comfortable until he started climbing on the outside of the tower. From then on my palms have been sweaty watching that, holy shit.



I would not attempt this without a parachute. I would try and hide it saying it's more equipment in my backpack then turn to my partner and yell "Alright Bill, good job. RACE YOU TO THE BOTTOM!" and leap off.

That was intense as fuck. But I've always been a climber, so I'd do it. And then when I came back down, I'd rape the first woman I saw, just to relieve the tension.





So they're up top, next to the beacon. Now what the fuck are they doing?

I want to cry now...
I am the Dragon. And you call me insane. You are privy to a great becoming, but you recognize nothing. To me, you are a slug in the sun. You are an ant in the afterbirth. It is your nature to do one thing correctly: Before me, you rightly tremble. But, fear is not what you owe me. You owe me awe.

in all seriousness I think it'd be harder to climb down than up.
