Standing up is really ballsy. Scooting out there, not so much.
I would totally jump out, or off of Anything with a parachutte. Even that space balloon. I'd pay to do it. I'm Way more scared at 3 stories on a ladder than I am at 1,000+++++ feet. it's not like it's gonna hurt when you hit the ground. |

i dont really see the big deal. If it were 100 ft. or 900 ft. you fall you die. How many have stood on the edge of bluffs acouple hundred feet up? ive done it hundreds of times.

That's a good point. I've stood on the edge of cliffs with drops of several hundred feet and wasn't bothered. Big difference between standing on the edge of a cliff and standing on that beam, though.

Dammit, it's going to take the rest of the day for my scrotum to come back down.

I couldn't watch more than 15 seconds of that video. I'm still freaked out.

Dean Potter is into that shit as well. He claims that he's going to work on some freefalling wingsuit shit that will obviate the need for a parachute, and he'll just glide down off the mountain from a BASE Jump. This is some craziness where he climbed Eiger with no ropes or safety gear then jumped off it. ****er is nuts.
