This video footage is something else. The Prima Pearl is a skyscraper in Melbourne currently under construction. Being that it’s under construction there is a massive crane there. One man, Drjft, has recorded himself climbing that crane. All 304 metres of it. It is spectacular and terrifying.
The fact that it’s recorded in first person just makes it all the better. Red bars, white bars — you can’t help thinking of Mirror’s Edge whilst watching, at least I can’t.
People will say he is crazy and I suppose this sort of behaviour shouldn’t be encouraged, but I have a lot of respect for people who can control their fear to the point where they think this is a good idea. Crazy to see it being done in our own backyard.
