whats the highest up you've been while out in the open? no handlebars, ropes, or walls to keep you inn just you, a ledge, and gravity. My record is 900' here in New York where I've posted about before. First time was terrifying to get to the ledge with the view but now I kinda enjoy walking the perimeter of the building and looking down. I wanna see your stories! and bonus points for shots of the adventure.




no god! please no! nooooooooooooo

Maybe she's born with it. Maybe it's methamphetamine.

120 feet, I think. That's what I read it was online. Seemed about right to me.

I once smoked half an ounce of very good weed. Never got any higher than this.

Not sure how far it is to the Delaware from the top box beams of the Trenton-Morristown Bridge but it seems damn high with the river moving below you as you walk it's riveted topside

A mountain in the Sierra Nevada some 9,000-10,000 feet up.

Or on Tioga Pass, at 9.945 feet.

In cities, it's harder to tell, but close to 900 feet.

Wheeler Peak NM 11K+ snow on ground still in July

I used to climb towers and install antennae for other HAMs but I developed a fear or a vertigo problem or something. I don't do that anymore but even a 100ft amateur radio tower has a pucker factor of 9.5 when its swaying around with two guys on it holding 60lbs of directional antenna and rotator. (bout shit my britches)

My record is a radio tower 200-300 feet up

I’ve also scaled a water tower with some friends, that was not as high but much scarier

Nothing like load testing the tower's structural integrity
