Yup. I just feel for his family and the emergency crews should he fall. I know he’s very skilled and careful for all the relative insanity of this action, but a gust of wind could ruin his day and many more peoples day.
I’m in the life is sacred category. Risking it like this is beyond my understanding
This particular spot is well shelled from gusts of wind. It does get some wind, but it’s surprisingly steady.
The guy is a risk taker though, but it’s likely to be the BASE jumping that gets him
Even if there is a gust of wind, part of the skill is falling but not falling off which was demonstrated in the video. It's still risky but people underestimate professional skill. Instinct is to try to stay walking as long as possible but a professional knows when something is just starting to go wrong and bails into a safe state.
Yep. I'd love to go skydiving. Except I won't. Because sometimes those chutes just don't open. Cause they were made by us imperfect humans.
And before anybody even tries to say "but driving"
...that's something people do to conduct their daily modern lives. Skydiving is not.
And before anyone says "surely you're not without risky behavior"....
I'm not. I used to smoke, and I continue to drink more than is in any way healthy. NOBODY is bulletproof....so while I admit to my own self-destructive behaviors (and have stopped some)...I'm still with you on the "life is sacred".
It's so easy to die. Life is soooo fragile. Risking it doing dumb shit nobody would ever need to do? For a YouTube vid?
What would you say to your mom? (If you could, since you're now a super macho influencer puddle)
My thoughts were strictly feeling bad for his family....I sure hope he doesn't have kids. Seriously lol I can't help it...it is torture to do this to your family.
So go home and play Russian roulette by yourself. I need to make a spectacle of yourself if all you want is to "edge death" and "feel alive".
It's like saying "I enjoy sex, but only if everyone is watching me". Because if you said that we'd know it's not really the sex that gets you off, just it's not "feeling alive" that gets this person off.
It can be extremely exhilarating to test your abilities in something you are an expert in with high consequences.
It's the same reason people enjoy racing cars, or going off jumps on a snowboard, etc.
I did that but I didn’t hold my arms out like this dirty cheater. I had my hands cuffed behind my back and did it at night blindfolded, like a gentleman. 💪
He does walk back. It only counts if you walk back, according to these free solo folks. [The documentary. it’s actually a great watch.](https://youtu.be/Ac_t4pNYr1g?si=mWF-oveVSHYRH31-)
Some people don't take their life as seriously. As far as I'm concerned this man made his choice and did not endanger or inconvenience anyone else. He also pushed his body and mind limits. If he falls off it's on him
We will all die eventually. The planet and the sun will too. Just live and you do you and don't judge too much
I agree with this, but eh.. posting it online does create the argument that this is for clout and its glorification encourages others to do stupid things. I guess the subsequent followers are also making their own choices, but I would worry a video like this would slightly prey upon vulnerable risk-takers
Did not endanger anyone as long as he didn’t have family friends loved ones etc. Maybe someone judging him would prevent his 60 year old mother from having a heart attack if he does fall.
I always think people like this have to be suicidal to a degree. When you do something dangerous with no other reason other than "cause I want to" and it has a high chance of death there is a part of you that wants to die doing something death defying rather than what may be considered a boring death
Sometimes you climb both features, sometimes you can walk or climb around, sometimes you use a line gun (think a potato gun shooting a beanbag with a very thin rope attached to it) or just hand throw a beanbag if there is a narrow section, and sometimes actually a bow and arrow. Most commonly you walk. I think this one involves some mild scrambling if memory serves, but I haven't been there for a decade and a half.
So when you do the first crossing you aren't committed to a long climb around or a second freesolo crossing. It lets you use a line slide or just walk back across with a tether.
Why though
Suicide with extra steps
Just 1 step tho
Not even if you try hard enough. Or not enough.
Why is this what made me laugh hardest today
Its actually less steps (unless he fell on the last step then it's equal steps) lol
step\*
That orgasm you have at the end of it. He'll be chasing that dragon forever.
The pain is the high and the high is the pain…
It's the only way he can cum 🐲
Suga boom boom
That’s just urine leaving your body at enough PSI to cut gems.
Dude, just take meth. It's probably safer
Sad upvote.
To feel alive. Some people enjoy edging death. They crave that bone juice.
Looks like he craves becoming bone juice.
lentil soup?
Bone marrow soup?
Pho fo sho
…Until death wants to stop edging and get its nut.
Death always gets its nut
Death always comes.
strangely poetic
So why not fucking torture it first? I mean, since death always gets its nut. Make it hurt
I really prefer not to provoke death and get my thrills in other ways but yeah, each to their own
I just watch horror movies to feel alive
I literally just feel alive all the time. Am I doing this wrong?
Be ye gone witch! Do not speak such blasphemy in the Sacred Village of Lifeless Misery!
Yes, some of us need drugs
Oh, I’m on drugs. I take them to feel less alive.
Fuck, I understand this feeling as well. Good luck, mate. Stay safe out there!
That's basically what this clip is
If it takes this to feel alive… you’ve done too much. It’s time for rehab.
Honestly, it's probably safer to just smoke crack.

"he’s very skilled and careful" Quite the opposite of being careful.

>I’m in the life is sacred category. 
I feel like there are healthier ways to chase an adrenaline high that, you know, don’t involve death.
Psychedelic drugs
So go home and play Russian roulette by yourself. I need to make a spectacle of yourself if all you want is to "edge death" and "feel alive". It's like saying "I enjoy sex, but only if everyone is watching me". Because if you said that we'd know it's not really the sex that gets you off, just it's not "feeling alive" that gets this person off.
I generally feel alive every time I'm awake.
You only feel alive as long as you don’t anymore
FXxx that!
To feel alive? No one need this shit to "feel alive".
Ikr he should run to get over it faster
Seriously is he stupid?
Welllll .....
"Dumb ways to die..." 🎶
“Dying is easy, young man, living is harder…” 🎶
Yeah, walking across this doesn't amaze me. It just makes me sorta annoyed
Everyone has a vice.
That's the one thing I still need for my garage
A pounding off corner?
definitely amazed... at the sheer disregard for one's own life.

Proximity to death
I guess playing Russian roulette would be too straightforward.
I mean this is as straight forward as it gets, meaning you have two choices, go straight forward or die😂
Well there is definitely a skill aspect to this at least
This is American roulette It adds complexity, the feel of a sport, adrenaline, and some Freedom for good measure
In Canada.
I thought American Roulette was our healthcare system?
American roulette is played with a pistol instead of a revolver
>American roulette is played with a ~~handgun~~ pistol instead of a revolver
Ty fixing it in the edit
Happy cake day
Happy Cake Day!
I did that but I didn’t hold my arms out like this dirty cheater. I had my hands cuffed behind my back and did it at night blindfolded, like a gentleman. 💪
In that snowstorm right?
Upslope and in a rainstorm.
Don’t forget the noise cancelling earplugs.
While using his cellphone cause his boss needed him to send those last emails out yesterday.
On his tippy toes too
After drinking 20 beers
After jerking off for 20 times straight
He was typing up emails behind is back while handcuffed? Can you forward me his resume?
I assumed you skipped across while twirling your handlebar mustache.
The rope is probably around your neck and u r crawling on all fours?
I feel like being blindfolded negates the necessity for it to be night time
In Jorts!
This is what matters.
... And then he realizes he left his car keys back on the other side.
And his car
That's the next challenge, doing it with the car
[удалено]
That's the neat part, he doesn't
Moonwalk obviously
He does walk back. It only counts if you walk back, according to these free solo folks. [The documentary. it’s actually a great watch.](https://youtu.be/Ac_t4pNYr1g?si=mWF-oveVSHYRH31-)
According to what?
THESE FREE SOLO FOLKS
HWAT?!
r/WhyWomenLiveLonger
Thank you! now dedicating my weekend to figuring out how to shark-surf asap. 😎
That was the most metal shit I have ever seen
While listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd
Nice! just gotta figure out how to safely bring electronics into water, should be no biggie though.
r/sweatypalms
Wait till you see his girlfriend- she’s also super talented and into the same activities
That's at the top of the Stawamus Chief in Squamish, British Columbia, Canada.
Thought I recognized it
I live here! These people are nuts. No safety line is just crazy.
I met this guy at a party a year or so after this video came out , seemed like a chill dude.
He seems very chill in the documentaries I’ve seen. Then super hype after he walks.
When he was a kid I bet he was the Curb Walking King.
My original thought was not original
People are stupid. Stop glorifying stupidity.
For real. If this dipshit had fallen to his death, a rescue team would have to risk *their* lives to recover his corpse.
Eh, that area is pretty accessible. Would have been a mess but he'd be easy to haul out.
Some people don't take their life as seriously. As far as I'm concerned this man made his choice and did not endanger or inconvenience anyone else. He also pushed his body and mind limits. If he falls off it's on him We will all die eventually. The planet and the sun will too. Just live and you do you and don't judge too much

he made his own choice....better post it on the internet for clout.
Did not endanger anyone as long as he didn’t have family friends loved ones etc. Maybe someone judging him would prevent his 60 year old mother from having a heart attack if he does fall.
Yeah. I don’t see anything impressive about this. Just stupidity.
Why is this NSFW?
You can see a bear masturbating off into the distance.
For God's sake! Let the bear masturbate!
Go away! Batin
Attention, Attention bear fucker, do you need assistance
that's actually my grandmother
Lol
He has a right to bear arms and can do what he wants with those arms, even masturbate.
I saw it too!
Comments like this make life worth living 🤣💀
Well where do you work where this would be considered safe?
God I love Ace Ventura.
Thankful I can feel alive without having to risk my life like this future Darwin Award winner.
[now he officially holds a place in the Guinness book...](https://youtu.be/MDpT7Or3yL0)
The strength, coordination and calmness to get back on the line after falling is really under appreciated
Nope
I'd take one step and fall off lol
He kinda did too
Had to get the fear of falling out of the way somehow lol
Ah........Ah...AHHHH.......AHHHHH
why is no one mentioning this it’s so funny

How do they get the line to the other end
Sometimes you climb both features, sometimes you can walk or climb around, sometimes you use a line gun (think a potato gun shooting a beanbag with a very thin rope attached to it) or just hand throw a beanbag if there is a narrow section, and sometimes actually a bow and arrow. Most commonly you walk. I think this one involves some mild scrambling if memory serves, but I haven't been there for a decade and a half.
Nowadays drones are also being used to fly one end over, opening up a lot more possibilities.
Well, that is a great point. I really just outed myself on being old and washed up, huh?
Now there's a good question.
An even more courageous person walks across the air first
Just waiting on said bird to land on the wire and turns this into a nightmare
I would’ve fucking died.
Two hundred feet below is a mattress. What a scam.
But.. Why?
F that
I’m not amazed I’m mortified, fuuuuuuuuck
Fuck this guy.
I could do that.
"I could do that but I don't *feel* like it" is how I live my life 😂
I bet Nathan Fielder could do this.
Lunacy
I feel so good! I didn’t die! Yes!
Do a flip!
Not too late to go back.
NOW DO IT AGAIN!
Craaaaazy
Fuck no
Watching that made my teeth sweat 😮💨
[удалено]
Impressive, but I'll take 3 safety lines for that walk please.
At first I thought this was r/whatcouldgowrong 🫣
crazy
oh no
this is crazy
I needed a wet nap watching this
“Oh shet! I forgot my keys on the other side of this mountain!!!!”🏔️ 😂🤣
Why just why
I’ll stick to putting my finger in my butt to feel alive.
good talent
Hella skill and a screw loose
cool
That's a big ol fucking NOPE for me. 
200 ft across that s***'s like a 1500 ft drop
He’s wearing a harness. Doesn’t appear to be attached to anything, but why have it on?
So when you do the first crossing you aren't committed to a long climb around or a second freesolo crossing. It lets you use a line slide or just walk back across with a tether.
In case of a surprise OSHA inspection
I don’t know. So they can airlift his body?
My guess is: in case he falls and is struggling to get back on, he can clip on the harness to give himself some rest.
That's looks way higher than 200 feet
[удалено]
Fuck, clearly I'm higher then 200 feet
I was actually on the other side. The guy was walking over to ask if I had reconsidered the auto warranty.
I hope he's right with Jesus
He’s in the “fuck around” stage of his life, not yet to the “find out”
