hope he is eating a balanced diet!

I guess the stairs are broke as well.

Gotta love the pole position

I do hope that his last name is “Wallenda”.;-D

One of the Wallendas heading to their second job.

How is poor bleeb going to get off that ledge he’s trapped on???

That’s why I like escalators. When an escalator breaks… it just becomes stairs!

How does he get back up?

A funambulist just trying to get to work…walking a tight rope both at and away from work.

Where is the net?

A zipline would probably be safer, and more fun.

They are replacing the elevators with gym climbing ropes; Less maintenance and lower operating costs. I have seen a cordless drill modified to climb ropes.

Of all the things I wanted to do and adventures I have ever dreamed of having, tight rope walking is one of the few things I specifically don’t want to do or watch anyone else do. Honors to those who do, do it. But, not me brother. I had enough trouble with the slide for life.

Of course, if he is going down, they can untie the rope from the other end.

Cute, but a little extreme, I think…

You have to wonder what type of setup they have for going up.

I prefer Batman’s grappling hook

Elevators don’t run BETWEEN buildings.

Everyone stares when you don’t use the stairs. How ’bout that? They went spat!
