Chinese fella, Wu Yongning, died when he couldn't get back onto the ledge and fell 62 floors.

I'd never criticise them though, I ride motorbikes and have skydived, things considered by some to be very dangerous. It's their life and, so long as they are not hurting anyone else, then they are free to choose what they do.
Yes, I agree with this.

I'd rather be killed doing something that I love doing, something I'm passionate about rather than die a slow, lingering, painful death in a Hospital because of some illness or disease.

Rather live 1 year as a Tiger than 200 year as a Sheep.     :)

If your moral compass is Piers Moron then I ask you to think whether someone who oversaw illegal phone hacking and published fake pictures depicting War Crimes is an appropriate person to look up to. In fact, I'd suggest you're a bit of a c*nt.

I don't criticize or criticise them either and I ride a peddle bike. It is their life and if they want to roll the dice by taking it to the extreme then fair play and I don't actually give a fuck if they die or not. We all take a risk by getting out of bed in the morning and people die every day .

Agreed. Can still say they’re crackers though! I’m sure they’ve got thick enough skin for that. Part of it (as they do the selfie thing) must be the enjoyment of being labelled as having a screw loose. My riskiest thing I’ve ever done is snowboarding, done it for 25 years, mostly off-piste where the risk of dying in an avalanche is surprisingly high. Been rescued off the top of a cliff when we came unstuck once. But that’s just run of the mill danger really, nobody would be impressed if I filmed myself doing it.. This stuff is a different level, bordering on reckless. You can’t help but be impressed and baffled at the same time. Good luck to em! The absolute mad heads.

Did a long trek in West Nepal recently which had tons of situations like this, but they're not too bad in reality as you're far too tired to do anything but look at where you're putting your feet :D

The builders were probably happy that they didn't have to crawl along the slippy soil anymore and proud of their new safe way of getting up and down that hill. :)

It looks absolutely amazing.

Yeah I would definitely like to go there. I'm sure it's exorbitantly priced though.

Tower Bridge has a glass panel over the bridge works below. I summoned up the courage to walk on it, very slowly, and then laid on my back whilst my mate took a photo.

Unfortunately I couldn't get off my back and had to be helped up by an Octogenarian Aussie lady, whilst my mate pissed himself laughing at my immobility.

Truth is that if the protection I've placed is  good and the person belaying me is paying attention I would only fall a few metres.
