Ok now this is just insanity. I thought the other video was bad.

[@Player_101_]

The one with 4 m views?

[@MrBloodSacrifice]

I’m glad this guy never got hurt. He’s still uploading as of yesterday. Completely insane job, I don’t know how he does it so casually.

[@adcraziness1501]

So basically, a spider. Human spider. You are doing spider tasks. That is a spider's job, weaving webs. Climbing lines. Spider. I like spiders.

[@2wofacejefe]

What??

[@Grey_Duck]

Now that is just downright convenient.

[@richcallahan2968]

This is awesome. I wonder if I would be allowed to use it in my field. They should have a battery powered one.

[@WorkingTitleCo]

They do, they are used on wind turbines a lot. And they often use battery powered one.

Someone with a broken weed eater and a belt tensioner came up with a unique ascender but not for me. Safety duck would have a load to hold....7 years ago I hope your still safe

[@davidwood-c5m]

How do the ropes get up there anyway? Somebody must have been up before to put the ropes there?

[@nicholasjohnson9694]

the ropes have to be there for safety purposes. it would be unsafe for the climber if there weren't ropes there...

[@wakkowarner3716]

@@nicholasjohnson9694 He asked how the ropes got there. Not why they are here.

[@4Core100]

Same way the steel cables on top got there.

[@miker.9266]

Its a cable system just untie the rope and ur ready.they install it during construction.sometimes u got to install ur own safety rope

[@jamesloughlin2620]

Yep ya tie onto the beam anyway ya can.

[@saddracula960]

are you using shunt for safety? seems crazy to me to work that way buy an asap or even a rocker great view by the way

[@dutchdude1972]

look closer

[@kitesurfingstardom]

Marlow 11mm semi static

[@jasonnicholson78]

F that. Be safe. I could never do it. Scared of heights.

[@jimmypham2487]

Me too!

[@RiggerHippie]

This was for the National Day event in Singapore?

[@kitesurfingstardom]

Yes it was.

[@SweetiePeachies]

At 2:21 did he take off his safety? Or is another one of the cords also got a safety?

[@leeloudallasmultipass2581]

we are using one called a raptor and we run a saftey back up on the petrol motor as well as our back up

[@kitesurfingstardom]

Yes I took the safety off. I edited out now .

[@questionableabsanity]

Level 4 technique!

Dangerous i had a buddy fall at the astro dome back in the late 70s rigging for ZZ TOP he was lucky it was 40 ft broken back broke arm

[@fakeenergie9947]

How you put the First robe on that fixing point up there. Do you use a slingshot or somthing?

[@kitesurfingstardom]

The locals bum shuffle across the beam to put it in.

[@OutlawRippa]

Shunt as a backup!?

[@aqkisho1794]

it's still usable

[@Leak-ec5gb]

You don't need to post this everywhere, idiot

[@jessknowland102]

What kind of a shit show is that entire setup? Why don't they have a permanent station that they can access from the top like other stadiums? I am not sure I want to rope up to that mess, but I love the machine. In the past, we used Jumar Accenders to hoist our way up using our arms and legs. By the time I would get up to the top, I was covered in sweat and completely burned out. I like this machine, kind of a hand-held elevator.

[@LoafAround]

using a combustion engine for this device seems insane lol

[@CH3NO2Semonious]

Unrelated, but I'm wondering what is in the seats? Or are they different color seats?

[@frogstock2597]

Wish i had one of these in my tree climbing days

[@Just_Smile-n2w]

Like relying on a leaf blower 😱

[@micahvorst5631]

At the top of the rig I see a few different knots creating the anchor (alpine butterfly, figure eight). Do you have a close up picture or a name for the anchor? Looks interesting, want to learn more about it.

[@kitesurfingstardom]

Just google, standard rope access y hang.

[@sevamikitas7656]

nice vid. what rope do you use?

[@kitesurfingstardom]

Thank you. I used a Marlow rope 11mm semi static.

[@sevamikitas7656]

cool

[@BGRANT777X]

Why don't they just build it so you walk on the roof and lower down cables and ropes for lighting and stuff like that?

[@bogey361]

Would be a whole lot cooler if they upped the HP on that thing.

[@dstockbridge1]

"I twin-turbo LS swapped my ascender"

[@jbeemz5554]

so where do you sign up for this type of job?

[@kitchentable1362]

where were you the entirety of this video?

[@kitchentable1362]

also, how did you get your rope up to those cables in the first place?

[@kitesurfingstardom]

Singapore stadium. Center on the rigging hub.

[@kitesurfingstardom]

the Chain hoists where connected before the rigging went up. So when the hub was lifted .We sent someone up with some ropes.

[@walker-snow]

How you can keep calm while swinging on a rope at that heights ?

[@WorkingTitleCo]

A very good trust in the system supporting you.

[@urban_fox_cub_urbex]

Trust in your equipment

[@JohnnyGallardo]

That thing needs a muffler.

[@Boga217]

It has one. It's just a flat little metal box..most meet California epa standards even.

[@monmixer]

Can that thing pull a logging chain from a 2 ton for 100 feet? in a minute?

[@kitesurfingstardom]

When it 40°C with 90 humidity. 330ft roof

I carry extra equipment. I can either abseil down or climb up with a cam device.

[@dakotafrobe8638]

im sure these people get alot of money but i could never do that no matter any amount of money

[@fastone371]

Cant you put another pulley at floor level and tie a rope to the hitch of a pick up and have the pick up driver drive away to get up there? Seems like it would be a lot easier. XD

[@buzzinbilby4308]

why?? coz fuck using a handle ascender to go that high!!

[@StacheBigote]

What happens if you run out of gas at the top? Can you still use it to get down safely?

[@LtLXIX]

There’s probably a safety option to still be able to go down I’m sure of it. I can’t imagine it would pass any safety inspection if you got stuck 100ft in the air 😅

[@LtLXIX]

Just have to do it manually like you would without the machine.

[@mantia39]

A gasoline powered ascender...far out!
