Same here... I think I'm still young enough to take a few foolish risks. I've done dumber things for worse reasons, at any rate.

It also says, "Watch your step" ..... Carl is still trying to figure which one is his.

And while you're hanging out there in space on a couple of old planks with nothing but a shear drop below you, what thought goes through your mind..."Oh crap, this thing was made in China...!"

I'd go to the top, theres nothing like a good adrelen rush. If I did it though, i would have to use this new found invention called a helicopter. It would make the climb so much easier on my knees.

I bet the trip up is fun, but the going back down part has got to stink.
