I was watching clips similar to this on YouTube, and then got side-tracked by people jumping out of aeroplanes and skydiving without a parachute (Travis Pastrana). They rely on other skydivers to hook up to them.  :o :o Actually a bit safer than hanging off a building though.
They must have no regard for life to do this, makes my legs go funny just looking at them.  ::)

If he missed the pool and you were pootling along underneath at the time it could seriously distort your sunroof seal! ;D

Funny isn't it.... Once you get past the obvious insanity. The post he's stood on is about the size of a biscuit tin. Plenty big enough to stand on without falling off. With added support at the side to hold on to. Ignoring getting up there and the wind, there's no real danger at all. I mean you could stand on a biscuit tin with a post to hold onto, without falling off, right?

Yet the very fact there's a serious drop makes one much more likely... To fall off. ;D

Fear, one for the gods to play with. All encompassed in a picture I'm viewing in the comfort of my own house. A picture that makes me feel physically sick just to look at. :D and no matter how much I tell myself to man up, the effect is the same each time. What a rediculous ilogical response. ....but then, some feel the same way watch bike racers on TV at times.

I don't believe he has such a luxury.

No post to hang on to as far as I can see. :'(
