I'm deathly afraid of heights. This was freaky crazy.
When we were up in Racine Wisconsin, me, my wife and two other couples climbed to the top of the lighthouse. When we stepped out to walk around the outside near the light, I turned around and walked right back in. My wife made fun of me.

That place is actually in Taiwan.
So not as rickety as some if the crap you see in China but ain’t no way I would do it.

Ok tough guy.
Do you rock climb and scale mountains regularly?
If not. Go frick yourself for acting like this is not a big deal.
Mr big shot. You’d piss your pants.

What would you have to gain? Risk vs Reward?
I don’t care clipped off or not there are a lot of other things I’d rather spend my time doing other than that.

No. No I don't think that I will.

I wouldn't even walk on the flat ground in China.

This guy gets it.
Most people aren't afraid of heights, they're afraid of falling.
I hate heights but could stare out of an airplane window all day. But outside, where there is almost nothing between you and the fall, even if the odds of falling are low, is a different story.

Think about the guy who installed the ladder.
I’m curious to how it was done

I did the same thing at the Eiffel Tower this summer. I literally got off the elevator and got back in the line to go back down. It was open air and I could feel it moving. I can at least say I did it. ??

At the beginning the girl says it's 5000 feet in the air and 170 meters long. Not being consistent with imperial vs metric makes me irrationally angry.

You might as well play Russian roulette if you put your life on Chinese engineering and building execution.

It's made by Harbor Freight, what could go wrong? 
Posted on 11/24/25 at 8:50 am to i am dan
I THINK I could do it. I would not enjoy it. I prefer to be paid for doing shite like that.

I couldn't even if there was a suitcase full of money at the top for me.

I consider myself to be extremely not scared of heights and to be quite a thrillseeker, but seeing how much that ladder wobbled and how thin those planks were, no fvcking way.
And the subtitle said they’d be on the ladder for over 40 minutes. Not even maybe. There will guaranteed be a nightmare scenario of someone freezing in fear and folks getting stuck there for hours. Would be a horror scene. How would you get people off?!?
