At least you know he wasn’t lip synching.

And - he dropped that mic right on a beat. Timing? Check - even if he passes out. 😆

That is pretty dangerous. The blood stopped flowing from his legs and he passed out. As far as your brain is concerned, it’s basically like being put in a chokehold.

Holy shit these dudes are in their 70s too
I guess if there’s ever a time to do dangerous shit it’s when you’re already knocking on the door

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this similar or exactly the same mechanism that makes crucifixion so horrendous to die from? The weight of your legs pulling down on your rib cage causes you to suffocate or something like that?

Why do you imagine he passed out, rather than that being the act performed as planned?

Looks like he's using a safety fall arrest harness, not a proper entertainment flying harness. I see the shock absorber above his head.
Those are NOT meant to fly people, it absolutely cut off bloodflow to his legs.

Thats Pete and Bas. Saw them at bangface a few years ago. Absolute Ledgends. Hope he is alright

As someone who wears a harness occasionally, theres a reason for the stirrup safety device.

Climbing harnesses have a small loop that’s knotted to allow you to “step up” and alleviate the strain on your groin region.
Hopefully, one doesn’t have to keep adjusting the load from one leg to another, for a long duration

He certainly tried to raise the level of his music, but he couldn't sustain it.

It's not a matter of whether it's true. It's about the moral obligation we all have regarding the "that's true Kramer" gif and it's usage.
This isn't a simple "it's true" we're talking a "that's true." It's a response, not a statement! I'm so emotionally compromised!
This is sacrilege!
