They were repairing lighting rods that were damaged in a big storm Rio had…..on the statue of Christ the Redeemer.
I could only watch about 30 seconds before my tummy gave out  :fp

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

I think I would have my tools tethered as well or carry lots of spares.
the absail would be cool but that bloody climb back would be a pain.
any way its only a statue. nothing of any significance really  :grin
