Pretty crazy that it took them an hour to walk up the whole thing.

I didnt realize they had those squirrel suits on either... that would explain the incredible distance they got away from the building.

Dubai is overrated. They could have gotten in so much trouble for that.

America, home of the free gift with purchase.

Dubai seems pretty cool.

Or hot. They're rich, which allows them to build cool things.

I'm just not one for hot weather.

Dubai is neat, the apparently slavery going on with the construction workers is not.

Wingsuit base jumping is cool. I could never do it myself though, too much death + expenses. Especially when you're caught. Confiscation of kit + hefty fines easily set you back a few thousand.

Sneaky sneaks. I'm actually a werewolf. Woof.

base jumping is on my list of things to try...so are quite a few other things....

must have been an awesome feeling jumping off that building.

People of our generation should not be subjected to mornings.
