There were no survivors
That one kid behind the pillar looking forward to inheriting all their toys
That looks not so safe.
Great for muscle development though
@PugJesus well just as long as they don't post any bills while they were up there...
Does it count if one of the kids fighting up there is named Bill?
@rob_t_firefly only if they 'post' him somehow.
In my time I would be the kid not climbing but many of my friends were doing something like this.
Such a beautiful picture!
The rubbernecker camera man waiting for the great fall. Seems nothings changed. No human progress. Chain smoking monkeys driving cars. For the lol's... people look back at the past and I am like "Helllllll no get your ass down from there, some how I am gonna get blamed for this. I can show you pictures of people with broken bones sticking out their bodies. Do you want to lose the ability to walk and wipe your ass. Drinkin from a straw pissing in a bag. Child you are gonna learn what it means to be mortal."... Going back to this time is stupid yet we got people doing back flips on sky scrappers on youtube these daze. So these kids are stupid or tramuatised, taking crazy risk they don't understand, like the kids of today who follow what they see on the billionare platforms. I think there is something deeper going on in our kids. A lot of them are pent up and suicidal. All just marketing ourselves in a unhealthy competition. I think it is capitalism. Thats what I thought when I looked at this picture.
