Selfies in the SKY!!!!

The "selfie craze" is not new to active social media users...... A combination of selfie and an adventuring spirit seems a recipe for extreme entertainment :-) ......I don't know if I have guts adequate enough to partake in such stunts *for now* hehehe......... 

 High life: Alexander Remnev (l) scaled the Princess Tower - the worlds tallest residential building at 1,350ft



Well, a Russian daredevil has captured a vertigo-inducing selfie - while standing on top of a Dubai skyscraper. Alexander Remnev scaled the Princess Tower - the world's tallest residential building at 1,350ft - before getting his camera out to take these stomach-churning pictures.
Alexander, who was on holiday in Dubai with friends, says they climbed a number of the city's towering skyline during the course of their stay. 

He said: 'Dubai has amazed me with its skyscrapers and views from them. We love the height of Dubai - it is a city of skyscrapers. We climbed on top of as many as we could'. 'After this trip, buildings in Russia seem very small.'
Fearless Alexander, from Moscow, Russia, claims gaining access to the buildings was straight forward.
  

He added: 'In Dubai, there are a lot of open roofs. It was not difficult to climb up to them.'
The daredevil is part of a growing group of 'skywalkers' - predominantly from Russia and Ukraine - who push themselves to the limit in search of dangerous thrills.

Some have been pictured dangling from overhangs hundreds of feet in the air.
They rarely use safety gear, and share images of themselves online. More pictures below........


  




 Good job guys!!!! Just make sure you don't fall off ;-).
