    My office used to be near this wall and it was not uncommon to see this group practicing here while I go out for my lunch walk.

    Like I've said many times before, seeing Mike in a harness is chance for a good time.

    Mike, this makes me think of the 1960's Batman TV series where they would be walking up a wall and run into a celebrity like Sammy Davis Jr. sticking their head out of the window as they passed.

    Mike, you are better at this than you think. I couldn't even get up there, let alone show any coordination once I got there! 👍

      I am right there with ya! Or at least starting off 1 story off the ground first. There is no way in hell I could just swing my leg over the side of a building like that and just go for it.

    Oakland needs that same waiver when you enter the city.😳

    Gotta say...I'm impressed. I did see some grace demonstrated. Good for you for overcoming your apprehension. The dance team were very sweet and gracious, patient and amazing. ❤

    You sir, are a very gracious person. Not for your dance moves, obviously, but for gamely trying. That was worth the price of admission !!

    OMGOSH! I saw this group do amazing dance inside the San Francisco Library, hanging from the multiple story roof. It was beautiful. Just amazingly beautiful. I feel so privileged I had the opportunity to watch them bring in a new and amazing dimension to dance chorography. I'm so lucky. It's so cool to see them here and learn so much more about the group. Thank you. 😊

    A mix between Bafoonery and grace! Good thing Mike's default setting is to smile and try hard!

    YAY Mike‼️‼️ I am so impressed. My fear of heights was on full alert. I couldn't walk on the platform at Meteor Crater with my children and husband. Three steps out and I froze; my husband had to literally drag me back to the rock ledge.

    Mike is always winning to try anything. Of course, there is also a benefit to whatever group he is highlighting on the episode. A win for us to watch Mike do whatever he is trying to do and a win for the exposure to the group on the episode.

    Reminds me of Mike washing windows in Hawaii on "Dirty Jobs". The cameraman gets his hair caught in the rigging.

    you gotta admire mike for being someone who's not a dancers age, or dancers build, and doesnt have a dancers grace, for really giving it a go, especially while doing it while being dangled on a harness up in the air

    They should put a giant trampoline vertical and use that as they bounce. Or use those bionic legs that let you jump really high.

    Mike....Full props to you mate! Huge cahones! I hate heights and I'd never get over the ledge even if it was for a million dollars.
    You did well. Props to you camera man for just hanging there filming.
    I don't care how state of the art the repelling gear is, I wont trust it.

  • @sparkleflair

    Is the next logical step to get to the International Space Station? This dancing reminds me so much of my all-time favorite book "Stardance" by Spider and Jeanne Robinson. If you haven't read it, you should! It's about a dancer who's "too big" by society's standards and goes to great lengths to BE a dancer. It's pretty cool, as is this dancing!!
