RayLosli 11 #1 June 11, 2005 When over in Twin on, Mem. Weekend I saw some good jump footage. Started with climbing up the stairs, to gain exit access. Like the majority of building roof-top access you climb up the fire stairs / Spiraling stair well. If your real lucky. You get to ride the Elevator up. I have seen this on other video's as well. When people are climbing (sneaking) they are Putting there hands on the Rail as they go up. I got severally scolded on my first building jumps when I did it and you bastards should to. This is just a good Habit to get into. & just my Opinion. Follow the out-side wall up the stairs and don't run your hands on the -INSIDE- Stair-Rail. That's something that takes a conscience effort, To Do. Bad Etiquette / shame one you/ Don't do that...... Q : If you are on top of the stair well and look down. What do you see Most ? A : You see Stair Railing with HANDS ON THEM. . . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnnyUtah 0 #6 June 11, 2005 I consider myself to be pretty darn stealthy. I hear what youre saying Ray - something to definitely point out. But sometimes you need to be super quiet; like when youre going past a floor where you can hear the workers just around the corner. I find that holding onto the railing can help you literally be as quiet as a mouse through each step. When youre that quiet you can hear every little noise in the stairwell, meaning you can hear when other people are in the stairwell and then yes you definitely want to stay back from the center railing. Dude, you would have loved and hated the approach on this 45 story building we did not to long ago. I kid you not, there were workers on every other floor until about the 30th floor. They were so close to the stairwell we were in enough times that I opted to switch stairwells at about the 15th floor. You know what I mean bro, when you can hear every beat of your heart and your wondering if they can hear it to. And then theres the controlled breathing that must be done. That was the only flick we got off that one so it was all worth it. Sweet jump too. I used to be concerned about prints in sites like that, but there are so many workers that go through there and the nature of it wouldnt warrant them trying to narrow down your prints. However, in a finished, occupied B, I still wipe doorknobs off with my shirt or just use the palm of my hand. To be James Bond, you must think like James Bond.Have Fun, Don't Die!

RayLosli 11 #7 June 12, 2005 Not ( Hand Prints )... DUMB ASSES ....!!!! You see, HANDS ....!!! HANDS that are connected to ARMS...!!!! . . I get what Johnny is saying about helping take the Load off the Legs on 50 stories climb and helping to make your Foot-Steps much quieter especially when your legs are starting to feel like two lead pipes and your heart is pounding because you know just around the next floor there a guy fucking-off and smoking a cigarette @ the floors exit door. Next time any of you are climbing a building stair-well. Look down the center and tell me what you see. . . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems like you are saying it's smarter to stay on the outside, so no one who happens to be looking up or down the stairwell will see you.

That's what I thought at first. But really...that person is probably still going to be there when you get to the top. So when you hear him...he'll hear you.
