This is intense. Watch it all the way.
What would it take to get you to climb that? Me... for starters, I'd want a parachute.

I get physically ill watching this one:
I am told one of these guys later died. Surprising absolutely no one.
I would get pretty worn out 1/4 of the way without all the tools strapped on..
Nope. Ain't gonna happen.
I posted this video a year or two ago. It's just as scary now as it was back then. Would I climb it? Only if I had two safety harnesses so that I would ALWAYS be connected to the tower by at least one harness.
Not a fan of exposed heights, so no.
I'd climb it without a moments hessitation........as soon as you layed it on the ground![]()
I'd climb it three times for fun. After that, I'd expect to get paid.
I was so disappointed that it wasn't the kind of pole climbing that I was hoping for on a Porn forum.
I got ill just thinking about the title once I realized how wrong I was.
Just sharing one of a quite famous tradition in my country. Apparently my Internet connection is too slow currently so if you want to look for the funny stuff, just hit 'Panjat Pinang' (palm climbing).
Any life amounts to no more than one drop in the limitless ocean. Yet what is any ocean but a multitude of drops?
Play me some bad Britney music and let me put on my hooker hells and I'll climb any pole you want me too. Hell, I'll dance around a toothpick too.
I've seen both clips a while ago and my palms start sweating each time I watch it. I don't think I have desire to climb that even with a safety harness. You need to be physically and mentally in shape to handle that. The thrill seekers like those Russian kids that climb to dangerous heights most likely have chemical imbalance in their brains. Normal people just don't find these things "fun and exciting."

My thought when I first saw this, "that'd be an awesome base jump". I'd take the job. Climb up, perform repairs, parachute down. Hell, for free jumps, I might do it for beer money.
Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day.
Give a man religion, and he'll starve praying for a fish.

That's kinda crazy. i had a lil bit of vertigo. I don't think i can handle this w/o passing out lol.
OMG! My legs were quivering watching that video.
Inspired - but too tired.
Wouldn't climb it either -- say nothing of dlimbing it.
I had to turn it off.
I began to feel faint and almost blacked out.
Thinking of feelings, the first video gave me chills every time the guy had to climb around some protrusion, but other than that was just fascinating. OTOH, the Russian one seemed exciting!

When I was in my physically fit period, I actually thought nothing of free climbing. It was pretty awesome to be able to totally trust your bodies abilities.
Today..... I remember that I am mortal... and not that fit. I get sick just looking at that now.
The one guy who kept letting go and stuff was just stupid. If he's the one who fell later, it's no great loss. The one I had respect for was the cute one who didn't show very often; he was plainly being careful and cautious.
BTW, never free climb when someone with a hot rear is above you.

I never free climbed anywhere that hadn't been tested by a few thousand people, generally. It wasn't that I didn't trust my abilities -- I didn't trust the rock.

The only part that truly scurred me is him checking his phone for weather data.... I have climbed plenty of mast on ships (get your mind outta the gutter) ... and the hardest part is ensuring the weather wont light you up or some dipshit lights off a high radiation antenna that can fry your nads. other than that I think it looks rather interesting....
On ships we can predict our own weather and see for several hundred miles... so I can go look at the weather guessers equipment myself before going aloft. I don't think I would trust Accu-weather with my life.
The truth is you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin,

I am terrified of heights......I watched this video on Full Screen, on my computer, and kept gripping the arms of my chair so that I would not "fall off the tower"...lol...

I'd get too much vertigo - which does NOT mean fear of heights, as some people confuse. I'd get nauseous - the landscape spinning as my perspective changed, and putting my hands over my head to climb, the wind howling around me and the pressure changes from altitude in my ears would really throw my semicircular canals into a tizzy.
