rather great stuff :y, noticed the safety line in place, but he never used it in the early parts until after crossing the pipe, then he slowed down to change the safety lanyard between bolts :y :y

WOW!  That is some walk; very exciting, bloody dangerous, especially where path is missing...and to hold a camcorder all the time as well (or was it strapped to his chest!)! :o  I have no fear of heights, so that must be so excillarating, and once you have completed the walk so gratifying.  Bloody mad but tremendous! :y :y

...and yes think of those who originally built it!  What clever and brave people! :y
