Saw that on FB. My question is, how the hell did he get up there in the first place? I couldn’t tell if that bag had climbing gear in it or what.
But also to continue your statement. HELL FUCKING NO. I’m not typically afraid of heights, but I am afraid of the lack of structural stability of old abandoned man-made structures.

Well, now I need a mop to clean up the spots where I was resting my hands.

Definition of more balls than brains. That ladder looks so sketchy......NOPE not ever.

When he is standing on the girder while juggling, you can see a bit of a metal staircase that presumably goes to the top.

There was a rusted access ladder going up the side with most of its safety cage missing. These guys would have to be very mentally ill. Normal idiots wouldn’t even attempt that. I rock climbed some in my past and I wouldn’t ever go near that rotting structure.

Balls? I haven’t seen mine since the dude started juggling on the end of the girder. I had to stop watching at that point.

Ah. I watched it late last night, so I must’ve missed that, lol.

Oh, ok. I watched it late last night so I must’ve missed that. And I definitely would not go near that. I’m all for urban exploring (although that doesn’t look very urban, but you know what I mean), but risking your life on something that hasn’t been inspected to see if it’s even still stable, and then not having any safety equipment is just moronic.
I guess that’s probably why these guys did it though; to say “Hey, look at this super stupid and unsafe thing I did where I could’ve easily died with one wrong move but I survived!” and get this reaction out of people.

Lolz The descent was worse.

You’re right. It was. I’ll be cowering in a corner somewhere if you need me.

It just dawned on me that with all these videos similar to this one, even a GoPro would likely not survive the fall from that height.
Maybe there are a ton more of these videos, but we’re only seeing the one who lived to upload.

An interesting thought. As gruesome as it would be, maybe they need to post a video or two from the ones who do fall to discourage idiots who want to emulate them.

Just the lead shot is enough nope for me, I don’t even want to watch.

I’ve seen video from a Go-Pro dropped from a hang glider. They can survive falls at terminal velocity.

I’ve recently learned how to unicycle. I’m still not great at it. It is way... way harder than it looks. And it looks hard. This video is crazy.

Hmm. Wonder how it’d do falling on concrete...

My guess is: less good. But my brief internet research indicates they do many times still survive. Also, since the memory card can survive pretty much any fall, you still get the recording even if you break the camera.

Go Pro survive this one last week of the base jumper nut.

You owe it to yourself to FF to the end and watch the descent.
