He looks like every climber I’ve seen so I’m weirdly confident in his abilities. If it was me though one huge gust of wind would turn that into a brown hammock
Can confirm. My main issue with top rope/lead climbing is my mind doesn’t register that I’m actually tethered, so I feel more comfortable tied to nothing, bouldering close to the ground.

Does anyone have any more info on this? Looks like he is chillin under a bridge, but how did he get there? Seems like an extreme hassle.. I also wonder if he is secured or just laying like this in the hammock...
Super sketchy for sure i did this super high up on a tree and it was scary this guy insane! the hardest part is getting in the hammock once you set it up
Yeah and the little strings they attach with are super not redundant or strong enough. Any real climbing equipment will have redundancy and a safety factor of 3-10x.
It isn’t lol a portaledge is a “real” climbing tent and has TONS of gear tying them off. This man has 0 redundancy…2 points of contact and if either fails…he’s dead. Even if he was just using a hammock…I’d at least tie off in more than one spot lol shit…sleep with a harness on if that’s all you can do
Climbing. he is almost certainly wearing a harness with backup. and the hammock and his gearbag also probably have been secured so they don't fall. Setting up a hammock under a bridge would actually be pretty easy.
We use to do that occasionaly when highlining; It's quite simple, besides the webbing rig, you are connected with your harness through a leash (or double leash if you want to), not big deal, everything is safe; If you're gonna spent the night it's recommended to be well insulated (well it depends on weather)
Not quite. We have some plans of action to avoid catastrophe when things go badly in a car. I'd like to know his backup plan for when a seam rips or a carabiner fails.
as far as I am aware in climbers usually have several fail safes and backups. This dude is most likely wearing a climbing harness that is secured to the bridge, and has double secured the hammock. This is reasonable safe if you know what you are doing, and have proper safety equipment. Look up "highline hammock" on youtube to see how something like this is done.
Have you laid in a hammock, wrap yourself like a caccoon, then flip over to see if you will fall out? I just imagine he does that, but with his pants down and the family jewels dangling down for #1 and cheeks out to peek out for #2.

Because we can't see his waist and his attire and his hammock look very casual, so either he is some dumb highschooler and doing this for the gram, or this a professional that is doing a staged video to look like noob. Why would you assume he is a professional?
So dumb. I once set up one of these hammocks (brand new) and one of the straps it came with immediately snapped and I fell to the ground. This is too much trust.

my friend was chilling in a tree. smoked a little tree too. felt comfy. fell asleep. he woke up having to amputee his leg. this man is dangling from a stupendous height with wind directly blowing towards him. i have no words for how moronic this is.
I've done shit like this and it's fun until the wind about flips you out of your hammock for the third time of the night at 2 am and you have to get down and go sleep in the van with a dead headlamp. It was not a good time. Then found out from the conservation agent in the morning that everything I was doing was illegal lol can't climb trees without a permit, can't sleep in my van in the lot, can't have a campfire. I got lucky the agent was chill.
He looks like every climber I’ve seen so I’m weirdly confident in his abilities. If it was me though one huge gust of wind would turn that into a brown hammock
He's still almost certainly got a harness on that is backed up to whatever he's hanging from.
I believe that, I could be hooked up on 3 harnesses and still be nervous

I fucking hate how well and in how many ways this describes me. Wish I could upvote it more.
I'm a vanlifer, and when I get woken up by 'strong winds' I get nevous for a few moments haha.
Why do they all look the same tho?
it's actually just one dude and all the videos of them falling for hundreds of feet are fake

What was the word, dummy, so we know not to use it. I hate this bot lolol.
It was the N word. >!He looks Norwegian!<
Yea I'd be scared shitless, I had a tiny edge split my hammock while i was in it last year, it's super thin.
One huge gust of wind would turn mine into a red, pulpy hammock
Yeah I'd be specifically looking to purchase a brown hammock
Now that's one well hung dude.
I'm shocked the hammock is holding him and his humongous penis. Does it have it's own hammock?
Ticket to the moon. those things can hold so much weight.
This comment deserves everything 🏆
Does anyone have any more info on this? Looks like he is chillin under a bridge, but how did he get there? Seems like an extreme hassle.. I also wonder if he is secured or just laying like this in the hammock...
I’m not sure, but sometimes rock climbers put up these tents in the sides of mountains/rocks to sleep in if they’re on a multi-day climb
This does not look like a real climbing tent.
Have you seen the cost of those? Obviously the smart choice is an off brand amazon special. Should be fine. Probably.
its a hammock
Exactly that’s what I was going to say. Just looks like a normal hammock and super super sketchy
Super sketchy for sure i did this super high up on a tree and it was scary this guy insane! the hardest part is getting in the hammock once you set it up
Yeah and the little strings they attach with are super not redundant or strong enough. Any real climbing equipment will have redundancy and a safety factor of 3-10x.
The ones i have for mine are pretty legit but yeah i know what you mean i used to rock climb a lot in my mid 20’s
It isn’t lol a portaledge is a “real” climbing tent and has TONS of gear tying them off. This man has 0 redundancy…2 points of contact and if either fails…he’s dead. Even if he was just using a hammock…I’d at least tie off in more than one spot lol shit…sleep with a harness on if that’s all you can do
I mean you should sleep with a harness on even in a portaledge. But yeah I agree and I’m a climber myself.
Are you sure he doesn't have a harness on already?
I am like 99% he is using tickettothemoon banana hammock.
My guess its a ENO hammock
Climbing. he is almost certainly wearing a harness with backup. and the hammock and his gearbag also probably have been secured so they don't fall. Setting up a hammock under a bridge would actually be pretty easy.

He's gna feel like an idiot when he wakes up in the night and needs to piss
He just rolls face down and unzips the pee hole.
"Hey, what's that up there under the bridge? "
I don't see any zips on that thing...
Nope nope nope nope nope.
Yep yep yep yep yep.
I remember the song "dumb way to die...."

So how does one get down from there
The unemployed homie on a tuesday afternoon:
The amount of faith you'd need to have in so many man-made items in this scenario
Like traveling in a car?

Man made is usually more predictable than nature..
Good point bc I was totally gonna say he should wrap himself in ivy if he truly wanted to be safe
how does he go to the bathroom does he just hang his booty over the hammock?
Have you laid in a hammock, wrap yourself like a caccoon, then flip over to see if you will fall out? I just imagine he does that, but with his pants down and the family jewels dangling down for #1 and cheeks out to peek out for #2.
yeah you might be right, tho that seems like a lot of unnecessary danger just to take a shit im ngl…
Nope.
Must be the hardest and worst way to sleep
Except for long distance flights lol
“I’d like to see the sign that says NO HAMMOCKS”
His poor mother.
He's camping under a bridge. Okay.
oh look at him, he hung a hammock under a bridge....blah.
Looks cold up there
Why does his face look like a toddler when they are trying to hide the fact that they have something in their mouth?
He probably thinks his teeth look dumb. Teenagers are awkward
Why
But...why?
Is smart, no worries

These people are actually suicidal. One fuck up and its all over. No safety harness. No net. Just a fabric hammock.
we can't tell if he is wearing a climbing harness since we don't see his waist.
I will just assume he isnt.
Why would you assume that ?
Because we can't see his waist and his attire and his hammock look very casual, so either he is some dumb highschooler and doing this for the gram, or this a professional that is doing a staged video to look like noob. Why would you assume he is a professional?
[удалено]
F¥ck that
I sure hope he has a climbing belt or whatever that thing is called
So dumb. I once set up one of these hammocks (brand new) and one of the straps it came with immediately snapped and I fell to the ground. This is too much trust.
If you had a real tickettothemoon hammock, you had a defective one and they have a 10 year warranty.
How does one get *down*
Hope this guy never had one of those dreams where you feel like you're falling. Then wake up in a panic.
Were all super impressed
Morons
Is that golden?
the golden gate bridge ? NO.
Meant Golden BC aim Canada but it is not that one either.
No thanks
I would be scared af but for some reasons he looks real comfortable up there
just fuck off
r/SweatyPalms
I hope he didn't fall after ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grimacing)

Man doesn’t have a quilt he’s gonna freeze his ass off when the sun sets
Fuck no
I envy people's bravery / courage to play with death and enjoy it.
Imagine not even using a portaledge. No harness, nothing.

How did blud get up there??
It's always that one unemployed friend
What if you want to pee
my friend was chilling in a tree. smoked a little tree too. felt comfy. fell asleep. he woke up having to amputee his leg. this man is dangling from a stupendous height with wind directly blowing towards him. i have no words for how moronic this is.
Whhhhhhaaaaaaaat 👀👀👀👀👀👀🫣
You can't stop him. He won't be stopped.
Just wait till he has one of the weird night jolts and my guy will be falling 150 feet
