@Urban-Affair This is a valid point in regard to falling on somebody. Hell even dropping a camera from height could have fatal consequences. I am not able to speak for other urban explorers or rooftoppers at large on this count but I can say this this: personally the edge scares the shit out of me. I just feel way too exposed. I don't ever hang off cranes, catwalks, or rooftops. I've never climbed a crane outside of the ladders and other areas meant for walking. I don't take unnecessary risks in this regard.
The picture of the individual on the Harbour Plaza crane a few posts back is not me, nor was it taken by me. Personally I don't enjoy these stunts... perhaps this is simply because I heard way too many stories about failed lanyards, near fatal "bumps", and broken cables in school. Remember I do wear CSA boots and a hard hat on site and also hold valid working at heights, confined spaces, WHMIS, supervision, etc.... I even have a traffic management cert in there somewhere.
Again not trying to justify my actions. I can't tell you what to think. I am fully aware I am not authorized and could face legal consequences. I just want to shed light on this subject from the "other side".
