    Highlining i'sent really about getting a rush... it's about the floating feeling, taking one step at a time, and relaxing. its almost the opposite.

      Sadly I believe he met the rocks at high velocity by now. Yosemite and much of the rest of Cali are spectacular.

    In case anyone is wondering, Dean Potter is 6' 5" and physics are not on his side versus a short manlet.

    This looks like fun to me. I've already tried the wing suit, which was amusing for a while but I'm not getting my adrenaline going with that anymore so I need something new... Besides, I need to work on my balance for freerunning anyway. Kill to birds with one stone.

    @theshaunblish I hate it when dumb people who never did anything try to sound smart... This guy has the right idea your just spend your entire days sitting behind a computer or socializing in other words doin nothing, while men like this experience real life as it is. I wish i could be like him, but no i'm stuck home looking for a damn job and hanging out with lame people that only think about alcohol and sex while i should be doin cool stuff like this...

    You can enjoy the beautiful places in this world without risking your life! But some people think cheating death is an achievement! It isn't really, and you'll die sooner or later, it's just that most people would rather it be later, and of natural causes! I was a thrill-seeker and did some scary things, and although they were well-calculated risks, you can't always trust the elements! Wind and water currents can raise havoc with the best intentions, and kill you! As you age, longevity becomes more and more appealing!

      Falling to your death for cheap thrills is the definition of a wasted life.
