I think that it's safe to assume than any Russian will out tough 90% of the human population in most matters. Dare a Russian that they can't climb as tall a building as you and then you'll get situations that lead to pictures like this. He's so dizzyingly high that this picture almost looks like a trippy puzzle. The best way I can describe it is that it looks like that movie Inception. Like the buildings are crawling upwards or something.
I really like studying every inch of this photo. As your eyes trace farther down the tower you start to notice the lack of natural climbing paths. Whatever it took to get up that tower must have been difficult as hell. Someone should have left him a beer up there because he deserves it.
