zen Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 That's an incredible skill! No need to say that requires a lot of courage Ppl who think rationally would find it hard to see what's the point of doing all this but let's not forget there are ppl who think differently, take on the challenges and push the boundaries ..... And such folks are special Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surajmal Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 dan osman (he actually died while bungee jumping in Yosemite - cord was left out in the elements and just broke) was another nutter.

Lurker Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Stupid. Never quite understood the thrill of free climbing, but props to those who can do it without breaking sweat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomainK Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Stupid in my opinion. The bravest I would go is take the stairs to the third floor, nothing above that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuge Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 its cool and brave as long as he doesn't fall . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hari504504 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 thin line between bravery and foolishness.. For example: a stuntman is brave if he has taken into account all the risks, understands how to manage them all and then does the act. Not just go - "hey that sounds dangerous - I am in !!" - these people are just dumb, darwin award nominees and winners many of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hari504504 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 ^^^ still requires some bravery to do it... but not plain stupid as climbing a tall structure without any harness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding the climbing mountains or walls w/o ropes etc... requires something more than that , a miss timing can be fatal... normally it requires the highest form of craziness with high amount of skills.
