Kinda popular sport lately. There was that person from Poland climbing skyscrapers all over the world without any safety. I think they are still alive even.
Eiffel Tower looks easier to climb than a glass tower but I could be super wrong
Yeah, any time I see a headline like this I think about the Chinese guy who fell from the top of a skyscraper.
It's a neat thing to see, but unquestionably dumb, in my humble opinion.
It’s the adult version of horror movies I guess. I must say that I haven’t felt true fear in a long long time. That’s good, great even but I imagine for some crazy people it may elicit this sort of response. The fear is a strong emotion that makes you feel alive. Without regularly supplying it it’s all sort of dull.
So as you go and conquer all your fears step by step the final challenge looks dumb and suicidal and it kind of is, that’s the point.
