We had the privilege to watch at first from the SE corner of the building and later as he climbed by the the observation deck on the 89th floor. Hair raising stuff I'll never forget.

I, on the other hand, had the privilege not to watch this. I don't know how one can without feeling sick to the stomach.

  • There are many answers depending on what you meant by this, but in terms of actual risk this is probably not much worse to him than e.g. riding a motorcycle, and certainly better than what it would have been to be crew on the space shuttle.

Wow that's awesome! You saw him climb past your windows! Must be a Googler

  • Nope! Startup founder who happened to be visiting Taiwan at the right time.

    The Googlers had way better views XD

Do you know if there was any guidelines to not "disturb" during his climb? Was shocked by how many people tried to distract him during that climb

  • They kept most folks pretty far away, you needed a pass or to work in one of the offices to get really close.

    I was also terrified when ppl would engage with him directly lol
