Here's another couple of Russian kids running around on a crane...

Makes my nuts tingle.....oops, now I need a tissue! Actually, it's a "different" kind of tingle, not a bad tingle, but not the good one either.

Actually my patented term "shit fuck damn" has priority here. This is ultrawicked shit and it needs to be treated as such. I think all involved should become wards of the state and get needed treatment!

I tend to think there's a line between courage and stupidity. I wonder if that line was crossed here. Even if it was, the result was some phenomenal footage.

I didn't see them doing anything stupid or dangerous.

Compared to what the Russians are known for, this seems to be pretty mild.

As someone with a moderate fear of heights, this scares the shit outta me.

That is unbelievably gorgeous. I would love to be able to do something like that in the daylight.

I used to climb the 1500 ft radio towers in the Texas countryside back in the days before cell phones and hand held camcorders (or harnesses for tying off). We would take flags, or strips of cloth up to tie on the tower to show that we'd climbed it. Good Times, Good Times!

I'd say that's about how high they looked to be, and there wasn't any horseplay going on so they were as safe as you can be without being tied off.

My favorite UE quote so far.

Hehehe +1,

Balls to the Russians; as a Soviet-born I also have an obligation to visit the motherland and do something awesome.

Terrifying.

Having climbed a crane a fraction of that size last night, I can't fathom what they were doing. I had to walk along the outer edge of the crane like they were doing, and two meters in I was barely able to open my eyes it was so terrifying.

lol!

Stunning view.
Ballsy, but seeing this reminded me of how slippery metal can feel if it's wet and there's wind... too easy to slip.

In first couple seconds the guy says

This perfectly summarizes my thoughts on the video!
