Went to that link and saw a pic of a gayer on a rope wearing a SAFETY HARNESS!!!...Lost interest straight away.
Sorry, my generation had people like this.... with NO HARNESS:
I give you Philip Petit....same age as me......spent 45 minutes on the rope between the twin towers in 1974, including lying down on it WITH NO SAFETY EQUIPMENT.
A real man.

that you old bastard is dean potter he only has the harness on for a couple of practice steps to get the feel of what he has to do then he takes it off and does it all the way
