If people didn't do all the pointless shit that's done everyday we would literally have no entertainment in our lives. For example people watch a guy walk a wire, is that any different than watching a movie about some fake guy doing some fake shit that doesn't affect us in anyway?

I did read the article...doing stunts for charity? can we not spend our energy on productive activities such as shore cleaning and do charity as well? must we watch some pointless stunt in order for us to open our pocket and donate to charity?

not to say his act is not charitable, but it is still pointless nonetheless, I think he probably gain more by promoting himself as a stunt actor than charity

I could not do that for so many reasons. It's one of those very impressive useless skill like swallowing fire or pulling an airplane down the tarmac with your testicles so I don't feel to bad not being able to do it.

I rarely say this.. but you're fucking stupid.

What kind of 'productive activities' have you contributed to society?

This man probably did more for charity work in one day than you will accomplish in your lifetime. I'm glad there are people like him, constantly pushing the boundaries of human accomplishment.

Definitely caught my attention and appreciation. You talk about charity work, but then turn around to take about how he could gain more for himself by doing stuntwork?

Since when do tightrope walkers need to do stunts?? In case you haven't noticed, 'tightrope walkers' aren't needed for movies anymore.

This guy has an amazing skill. Dare I say it, God given.
I'm sure he did much of this for money but because as posted above, there is no longer a need for people like this, these skills have gone to waste.
But to be honest, If humans are capable of such feats as this, and many other "superhuman" feats, then shouldn't we be showing everyone what these humans can do?
Because it would show every what humans are capable of and that we can do extraordinary things.
The fact that he's doing this for charity is amazing.
And yes i agree, we don't need stuff like this to open our wallets, but to an extent.
If you had this ability and ignored the fact that there isn't a safety net to catch you if you fall, would you not do this?

If I could do whatever sort of witchcraft balance that dude does, then I might consider it.
this is why we should be able to fail mods...
