Entertaining for everyone, really. You have to feel for some of these people! Looks like a cool place, aside from the fear factor.

Nope, nope, nope.

If Jennifer Anniston was doing nude yoga out there, I'd pray for a telephoto lens and call it good...

That's where I'm at. If this was in the US, I'd have no problem walking out on it.

In China? Not so much.

Yeah, from a height perspective I wouldn't care that much. I would be concerned about the safety of the structure from a build quality standpoint.

Yeah, whoever tried to drag me out there damn well better be able to fly.

I don't find that stuff funny at all. Some folks don't understand that those people are truly in terror and they are trying to pull them out anyway.

My father tried hauling me up a tall lookout tower when I was about six years old and I was terrified. I was able to lock my arms around the rail and he'd have had to break bones to get me to let go. He tried, and I remember it like it happened yesterday. You don't fuck with peoples' fears like that.

When I was very young 4 or 5 I remember my dad lifting me on his shoulders on the observation deck of the empire state building.

This was a long time ago when the barrier was only about 6' high.

To this day, when I am on my roof which is 23:12 cleaning my chimney, I always seem to remember that time.

Fuck's sake, why don't they just water board those poor folks instead? They'd scream less.

Most people have some sort of major fear. To take obvious advantage of it is just plain mean.

On the other hand, hats off to those that braved it on their own. That takes sack whatever the circumstance.

In the Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco, there's a bridge similar to that except it's only 6 stories up and made of perforated grating. If you look down while walking over it, it definitely gives you a bit of vertigo.

If the structure failed, there'd be a lot of people spending eternity saying, "See?! I told you so!"



I found what you said riveting.
