This actually causes me physical pain just to watch.

    Ah, boys….. the PRC is not as ‘easy-going’ with law enforcement as the West. Big risk, little reward. What, not up for being an Iron worker, Paratrooper, or smoke-jumper?

    So these gentlemen were or were not BASE jumpers. Although I haven’t a BASE jump under my belt I do know one thing…I’m not climbing something like that and not jump off of it. One did look like he had a “rig” but not the other one.

    Not BASE jumpers. I think they had some climbing gear, especially there at the end on the crane. But no chutes.

    The monitor was trying to make me jump.

    Thank you xbradtc for the clarification and yes if BASE jumpers film themselves going to the top they’re most ways going to film themselves “exiting.” Everest in my opinion is something you climb “because it’s there,” but buildings give me a rig (I prefer thousands of ft. buffer but when in Rome…)

    Laughed at myself for leaning back in my seat when they pointed the camera down. Whoa.

    My toes were tingling at the top. No safety line, no “on belay.” One strong wind gust would add to the Darwin award candidates.
