Holy Crap!
Me = not ever/not even/no way/not in this lifetime!
I have a deathly fear of heights and get horrible vertigo when I'm on the edge of anything.
I tried to look to see if the dude was wearing a belt and hooked up to something in case he fell....I think I see someting but if this is in Mexico who know what kind of safety standards are in place!

Wow...great shot Z!
We call it a springboard too MM!

Bambi, I admire your courage !

Casil, the man has some sort of rope that he ties to the structure to secure himself but when he was climbing the structure the rope was not tied in any way... That I saw very well. I've seen worse here but did not ha a camera with me ... The regulations are not what we have in Canada. Often workers climb and work barefoot for example.
Thanks for looking and thanks for your kind comments.

Along similar lines, I recently did a placement at a local rehab unit and one of the clients there was recovering from a brain injury due to an accident in a 3rd world county. This poor person had bed sores/deep open ulcers all over their body (especially the head and heels) most likely from not being moved/turned while in the hospital.
Quite sad really.... but standards of safety and healthcare are different in other places. Makes me so grateful and thankful to live where I live!

Nope...at least not that close to the edge without a railing....!

Yikes!!!! I am getting vertigo just looking at it!
Pretty though but I will shoot from a safe distance with a 300mm zoom...thanks very much!

yeah. I went there and felt like the wind coming off the ocean was going to carry me over the edge.

however, if you come I will take you there because it's a breathtaking area. I'll just make sure that you are safe

[casil403]

DEAL! If you come out here I'll take you to the mountains for shots!

[Bambi]

I'd totally go up there.

can you imagine the view and the shots?

of course, some day I'd like to sky dive too
