I began watching people climb structures etc on YouTube years ago.

Rooftopping sometimes called roofing refers to the unsecured ascent of rooftops, cranes, antennas, smokestacks, etc., usually illegally. Participants have been classified by psychologists as thrill seekers who thrive on high levels of stimulation and complexity, although other theories explaining their motivation exist.

Now I don't feel fright watching these, but I used to. I guess that after being repeatedly exposed to these videos I got over that fear. But in real life I do feel fear of heights, especially when I am not fully in my senses. I suppose to get over that fear one needs experience with heights? But of course I am not looking into getting that unless there was truly a safe way doing that.

So I thought I would share some videos of these daredevils. Though it seems a lot of their videos do not exist anymore. One channel has all his videos deleted for instance. I think Youtube are aware of these videos in any case, I suppose it's not illegal sharing them.





They also do other things like parkour, train surfing and exploring etc.

One video I found cool was this safe house video:

 
Are millennials that unaware of the trades? Roofing is a trade. I saw this and was not expecting the content!

I wonder if some of the deleted pages were deleted because the selfie patron had a fatal fall?

Joe Rogan made an interview with James Kingston, the person who appears to have all videos deleted, was asked if people have died doing this, said no, didn't know anyone personally, and don't see that many that has been publicized:

Just to clarify my post. When I said videos not existing, I meant uploaders videos have been reduced into fewer videos. That's probably because they themselves choose deleting them, I guess.
 
This YouTube video which starts from 2:10:15 shows Shiey and two of his friends climbing the Duga-2 radar near Chernobyl. The video itself is originally from a YouTube series called 'Journey Across Chernobyl Exclusion Zone' that Shiey uploaded to his channel.
