Dude ... that's funny!

Have nights with more than 1000 meter vertical ladder climb ... that's for you feet people about 3300ft.

Yep, that's packing in between …

Now days I think my comfort zone are around 450m vertical.

That Gary Cunningham bloke climbed 133 steps a few days ago!!!!!!! The lazy bugger used an elevator for the rest of the altitude! Laugh Yes, I am jealous!!! Wink

Yet he travelled about 130000 feet up, and another 130000 feet down in one day!!! That is impressive and must be some record in itself!!!

Miles wound have done 25 to 30000 feet off the Potato - apparently all climbed and jumped. A bit more leg work than Gary (65 feet). Woooohhoooooooo!

I guess those two are the benchmark.

What about E's. There must be a lot of altitude gained by some people in other ways. I've done a few in the range of 5500 to 5700 feet exit to landing. I've also jumped around 75000 in about 10 days (Norway) but probably only climbed about 10 to 15000 of that.

r.e. skydiving. The guy who holds the most jumps record did 500 or so. I assume be bailed out around 2000 feet. That means he spend One Million feet in freefall / under canopy in one day!!!! Wow!!

p.s. if my math's is wrong, shoot me!!!!
