Ah! Those are not so crazy at all. Here is a shot from a manbasket that get mounted on the end of a 30 ton crane. I was testing it out to make sure the remote controls worked, and that it did not have any mechanical problems. Figured I would catch a shot while I was up there.

There's one in there that's more than crazy, if its real and not shopped or a forced perspective shot. Its the one of the idiot with a death wish, getting a macro of a lion's tooth. What a loon!

Why so serious?
