    Russian Tower Freeclimb

    Funny thing is, if you happen to play BF3, then these towers should look pretty familiar, though climbing them in game doesn't really elicit a reaction like it does here...

    Crazier than going 120mph in a canyon? I don't think so, it just looks scarier.


    Fwiw, I think it'd scare the shit out of me, but I'd still climb it just to do it...

    Yeah, at first I thought those were parachutes, not just backpacks.

    I was wondering the whole time, what flavor that lollipop is!

    I think the part that would suck the most is the climb back down... jump there is water down there!
