MDH Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Not that it's not high up- and I'd be holding on for dear life if I was up there - but all these vids are shot with extremely wide angle lenses which greatly exaggerates the distances and makes everything on the ground look much smaller than it really would if you were up there yourself.

rockpile Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I know they're strapped in, but.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcKGQpoTWmg Heights do not bother me - I would do that (when I was younger anyway). I used to go "over the wall" on a rope at Letchworth Park with a chainsaw to trim brush when I worked there, back in the 70's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to go "over the wall" on a rope at Letchworth Park with a chainsaw to trim brush when I worked there, back in the 70's I could never do that. I'm afraid of widths.

Chef Jim Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 My wife volunteered to crew the Californian (see pic). She'd climb the mast up to the yardarm to help bring in the sails while at sea. I'm proud of her for doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
