nope..

3 reasons :

I'm afraid of high places.. ;D

There will be no toilet.. ;D

Reaching that point even with elevator  will require half a day ;D

 :y


But wouldn't it be great having a number 2 up there ;D ;D can just imagine it some poor bugger walking past thinking "My word that must be a big bird!" ;D ;D ;D
Just imagine the impact speed and fallout area.It really would be a case of 'sh*t happens' :y ;D

There's a film on Youtube somewhere of some "urban exploration". Couple of guys managed to climb such a crane at night and were hanging off the end of the boom and doing all sorts of stunts with no visible safety gear (I guess a parachute would be your best bet!). Made me feel quite ill just watching it and I'm not normally someone who has problems with height.  :o

Think it might have been these idiots. In fact, looking at it again, he has a backpack on. Perhaps a 'chute?

Wouldn't catch me up there, that's for sure. :o
