The dudes in that video definitely had climbing gear in their bag and we're using it on camera
I always feel like the fisheye lenses make it look more intense than it actually is. Not to say that it isn't intense, but the fisheye effect makes the ground look significantly smaller and the sky significantly larger. Even a normal stairwell with fisheye is disorienting.
all i gotta say is that any time i watch videos of people climbing around skyscraper construction, i justt am like damn... humans really out here, doing all this
nah it's not selfish. humans gonna human. it's a human impulse.

I feel like these people know their limits very well and stop themselves before getting anywhere close to dying. Obviously, something could happen outside of their control and cause a fatal accident but the same could be said about someone going for a walk. I've certainly been in positions where I pushed up against my limits, thought to myself "I don't want to die today", and dialled it back down.
Nah these people die all the time
