Slacklining in High Heels

[CrushedVamp]

Okay, so walking on grating can be difficult, as could walking across a lawn after a four-inch rain, a sandy beach in high heels would be tough, but what about 4000 feet above a valley while walking across a slackline? 🙂

I realize this is an old video, but I did numerous searches on this site for "slacklining" and was surprised it had not been discussed before.

I routinely work at height, but not at 4000 feet, nor are we allowed to walk the transmission lines, at best a ride in a helicopter, but most days just on aierial lifts. I cannot fathom walking the high-tension lines at all, much less in high heels.

Add to the list of silly things people do …

Silly perhaps, but just because it is not something you might do, does not mean a person cannot appreciate the skill, bravery and determination that it takes to take a hobby to the next level.

As an example, while you love being on a canal boat, do you not appreciate the beautiful lines of a well crafted wooden kayak? A handsome barrque breaking through heavy rollers? A bateau laid up with striking planking? as it scoots down whitewater?

There is complaints on here of people no longer wearing high heels because it is inconvenient and challenging to wear, yet this woman is not only slacklining in high heels, but jumping in them... on a slackline... and balancing upon a series of soda cans. It may not be skills any of us necessarily need to enjoy our lives wearing high heels, but I can appreciate the skill and determination she has in being able to do it.

Not my thing, but I appreciate the skill!
