    Yuppp. Wasn't planning on it but my plans tonight fell through and I stumbled across this. Would be better with no safety harness though.

    Yep, I'm watching, but they were showing clips of his other walks which were so much more dangerous cause he didn't have a safety harness...this must feel like a walk in the park for him. It would be pretty epic if he took off the tether in the middle of the walk tho.

    Well if he's wearing a harness, then fuck it.

    No death - no danger.
