The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.

I am terrified of heights. I just can't see how someone can do that.

Makes the bottom of my feet tingle watching that, guess that be my pea brain telling me to keep them on the ground.

He's 800' up. It would be a lot safer at 400'.

Makes me tingle all over! Strange, being up in an airplane is no problem but on a high structure it gets spooky.

I can't watch the video. Just can't stand to watch it.
I have been up 800 feet many, many times in my hang glider.
Didn't bother me a bit, wanted to hook a thermal and get up to 1,500 feet where I felt comfortable.

But I couldn't stand to be more than 25 feet high on a structure. Somehow it is different.
That guy has some guts, maybe more balls than brains.

Some people just naturally have ice water in their veins instead of blood, I think.

He's the kind of guy who will put on a squirrel suit and jump off a cliff head first.
