Popular Post EnterTheVoid Posted January 29, 2017 Popular Post Posted January 29, 2017 (edited) Not content with summiting to the base of Mount Everest in the middle of Himalayan winter, I decided to push the limits of my endurance and climb to the top of Macau Tower, the highest tower in Macau, China. The more you have of adrenaline, the more you need to have of it. There is no turning back from this. This is an activity I don't recommend you do if you have a fear of heights. The heights can induce nausea, dizziness and vertigo. If you love heights, than by means, go for it. This is Macau Tower: And this me climbing to the top of Macao Tower, one ladder rung at a time.

EnterTheVoid Posted January 29, 2017 Author Posted January 29, 2017 Once you get to 80 odd storeys, you have to climb ladders on the outside of the tower. This is where things start getting freaky. Sidhoni, Laaloo, chewy and 2 others 5

EnterTheVoid Posted January 29, 2017 Author Posted January 29, 2017 Chilling 100 storeys off the ground. Breathing in the fresh air, taking in the view. This is Macau and this is how we do it. Live big. Sidhoni, Laaloo, randomGuy and 2 others 5

beetle Posted January 30, 2017 Posted January 30, 2017 Great stuff! Even the thought of doing this induced vertigo I would rather shoot myself.
coffee_rules Posted January 30, 2017 Posted January 30, 2017 I would not do it, even if paid. Appreciate others doing it. :thumbs_up: sandeep and velu 2

EnterTheVoid Posted January 30, 2017 Author Posted January 30, 2017 On the edge, some 80 storeys up. I am not clipped into anything, just walking around, enjoying the view. You have to trust your instincts and back yourself if you want to do things like these.
EnterTheVoid Posted January 30, 2017 Author Posted January 30, 2017 The craziest thing I have ever done was when I mountain biked down "Death Road" aka "North Yungas Road" aka "The Most Dangerous Road In the World" in Bolivia. Read about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yungas_Road

I have sky dived twice before. The physical stress on the tower climb is far more relentless. You are climbing one ladder rung at a time, on your own, until you reach the very top. You need to know how to use climbing harnesses, fixed rope and the like. Your arms get tired but you have to keep pushing on. The moment you stop and rest, you lose all momentum and it can be very difficult to start up again. At the top of the tower, you can feel it swinging from side to side. All of this just adds to the danger.
EnterTheVoid Posted January 30, 2017 Author Posted January 30, 2017 How high? This high. Just keep climbing up. Don't look down. Sidhoni 1
EnterTheVoid Posted January 30, 2017 Author Posted January 30, 2017 Once you are at the very top, you can just chill and do your thing. Sidhoni 1
