Some people take an ironing board. It's called 'extreme ironing'.
If you disbelieve me, Google it. Sometimes I think I'm a nutter - but no - some folk are on a whole new level.

Twice would possibly be illegal anyway.....it means one could claim twice.

Agreed guys! But that above is beyond the pale!!!
S'funny - I have no problem flying a light aircraft with just a couple of millimetres of aluminium under my arse, but images like the one above really give me the willies.
There are other images - similar to these - with nutters (seems mostly in Russia) who climb tall structures like radio masts or cranes and then photograph themselves in unbelievably dangerous positions on them................

Hi GB do you fly aircraft, have you a collection of spitfires in your garage and a few wings in your back garden, tell us about your aeroplane adventures. When I was young I experimented with fitting wings to bicycles, copying stuff I had saw on tv, thought I could take it to the next level, got a few right falls going down hills. Years ago I worked for a telecommunications company, when they were training us to climb triangular towers we used to wear plastic bell shaped dog collars, similar to what an injured dog wears so that it cant lick it's injured paw. The idea was that we could not see directly down, only up and across, it was a great help.

Yes I could do it but only if there was a rope to hold just in case, bit like bungee or parachute jump you have to overcome fear & then it's great I did a bungee jump in Cyprus from a crane into sea & it was fantastic but the feeling you get at the top is scary but nice in a strange way, maybe I'm just strange

GB, did you know that the expression 'Beyond the Pale' originated from expression about Dublin about 150 years ago where the Pale refereed to Dublin city and an immediate area around it which was loyal to the British seat of power in Dublin and was deemed safe for the lords an ladies to travel in their carriages. Outside and beyond that area was saw as uncivilized, disloyal, unmanageable and savage with regular uprisings and guerrilla attacks. I don't know if there was a fence or 'Paling' to mark the boundary. Today the inner city has all the modern social problems of any city, but Dublin county outside of the city is known as 'Clip Clop' town where many fairly wealthy horsey people live there.
