That is amazing. We should stage a re-enactment on the Forth Rail Bridge ;D

Amazing photo...it fair brings on my vertigo!!!

Certainly don't have anything that would compete with that (even a wee tiny teensy bit)...which sounds like a challenge...maybe...

How difficult d'ya think it'd be to climb the Finnieston Crane?

Very.

Hello vertigo, and hello inferiority complex.

arguably, he's just being a bit silly taking that kind of risk....although...

Err, I meant "not very." I don't know what security is like there, but I wouldn't imagine it would be that stringent. As for the crane itself, it looks like a giant climbing frame. I think that if anyone was really going to do it, the question is "how big are your balls?"

my balls are massive!!!! i'd be up for it given the proper equipment

getting up the crane would be no problem, seeing as it's got stairs up inside it IIRC. the difficulty would be getting over the pointy steel fence that has CCTV trained on it. there are however other very similar cranes slightly outside glasgow - not sure how easy/difficult they'd be

Oh, I'm very versatile :wink:

It would be great to get some photo's like this from or of landmarks in and around Glasgow. You always see the same views of the same places done over and over... would be a great asset to our ever-expanding database

I climbed it years ago, when I was about 16. Great view, but sadly no evidence to back this up. Could be persuaded to do it again though? Sounds like a challenge???
