I've been an admirer of these guys for a long time. Gob smacking stuff.

From my computer room wall, and I hope I haven't spoiled any surprise in your link, but I had to post these.



Make sure you check out the link as there's a few more than I have here.

Nice one Corona, I've never seen some of those.

EDIT: Even better, I signed up with the site (email address only) and you can download stuff, so I've now got that sequence as a PDF document. Again, nice one Corona.

Thanks for the compliments, but stuff like that makes me lose blood pressure, or replace all my blood to where I never expected. I was hoping LuLu or Hazelnut would see the pics as I love hearing the fairer sex express faintness of heart (etc.)

I have seen them before Corona. When I looked again through your link it is still an astonishing thing to see. I cannot even imagine what it must have felt like to stand on a narrow piece of steel with nothing to hold you there. Never happen today would it?

You know the old 'Heath and Safety'

I can't imagine what it would've felt like either for those guys because it takes a lack of certain mental facilities to even do that. Many mistake it for bravery. They weren't up there because they're brave. They were up there to do a job & get paid. They're equilibriums must've been like trapeze artists. Respect for the law of gravity never entered their minds except maybe as a concept, like a drawing on a piece of paper.
