I've had a couple of beers on the balcony on account of this beautiful weather, and prepping my apartment for showings, so I feel comfortable judging those gentlemen on everything outside of their obvious gently caress-up.

YOUR MOO-STACHE HAIRS, IS IN VIOLATIONS, OF GODFATHER'S REG-YEEH-LASHINS.

DIE SCHNÜRSENKEL SIND FEST ZU SCHNÜREN UND IM STIEFEL ZU VERSTAUEN, KAMERAD!
DIE VERZURRUNGSSCHLAUFEN DES GEFECHTSHELMS UND DER SPLITTERSCHUTZWESTE SIND ZUGFEST ANZUZIEHEN!
DIE SCHLAUFE DES TAKTISCHEN GESCHIRRS AN DER STANAG-WAFFE G36 IST STETS AM KOPPELTRAGEGESTELL ZU BEFESTIGEN, UM WAFFENVERLUST IM GEFECHT ZU VERMEIDEN!

By my understanding: the guys on the ground are pushing the guy walking up the wall into the wall. This creates static friction sufficient to keep him from sliding down due to gravity. It's like using a clamp to hold something up.

That said, the guy doing the walking is in pretty drat good shape, considering he's transferring all that support force from his hands through to his feet with just muscle power. It looks like he put his left hand over the end of the pole, which helps (certainly easier than just gripping the pole with your fingers), but it's an impressive physical feat anyway.

The helicopter approach has its appeal, but it lacks that certain ballistic panache that I'm looking for.

It's not like you have that much of a bearing on your gun going over on ladder in any case. And speed is worth a lot. Going up there alone, on the other hand, now that is a big loving nope from me.

McCain was always a reckless pilot. He lost a Skyraider and a Buckeye trainer, and he heavily damaged another Skyraider when he rammed some power lines in southern Spain. All of that happened before the Vietnam war started.
