Highest B You've Climbed?

Recommended Posts

David Adcock climbed the exterior of a 970 foot building in downtown Houston in the 1980s. He wore a skydiving rig when he did it. That's incredible since one's balance is changed so much from wearing a rig. He did it twice. The first climb was at night. The second was at noon and he got into some legal trouble. At least he got the jump.






Didn't David Adcock also climb a tower by means of the guy wire. He definitely marched to a tune the rest of us didn't seem to hear...

Did he use prusik knots or similar and just kind of jug up the guy wire? I assume he didn't just straddle it and shinny up?
