Does Anyone Recognize Mr. Greaves in this Picture . . .

I'm not sure Chris would wear such a suit...

[John Gray]

Unfortunately he's just out of shot, performing an inadvertent base jump...
(Gone - but not forgiven...)

No Chris but a few from right to left are:
Hans, Claude, Leif, Stuart, Rudi and some who wish to remain anonymous, due to insurance policy concerns.

[HansV]

I'm 100% certain that we'll never see Leif like that!

[StuartR]

I HATE abseiling. The first time I did it, I swore I would never do it again. The second time I just shrugged and asked myself why I was such an idiot. Never again.

[Rudi]

On first glance I thought that look like Chris at the end (with the black pants on!)

I hate heights.
Including being in a Porter Airlines aeroplane.
If I were crazy enough to get involved in a fear-inducing stunt like that, I'd be the one with the black pants OFF, hollering for a fresh pair.
Preferably Khaki-colured.
Or dun.

Cheers

Hey Chris, since you just got back from driving on the illustrious NL highways I would think you would find the Skywalk an easy sport!

Oh, the NL highways weren't so bad - after all you get to stop every ten minutes, it being summertime and bridgework being in progress all over the place.
It was flying Porter Airlines that did me in. Turns out they don't fly Toronto-St John's at all, at all, they fly Toronto-Montreal, and then sit there for 1/2 an hour, then they fly to Halifax or similar. Only when they have run out of options do they shrug and lope off to St John's. The flight back was over 8 1/2 hours, stuck in a seat ("Please do not block the aisles because we have only 30 minutes to push out passengers, collect empty beer cans etc and push on passengers ....").
I could have flown to CDG in less time⁽¹⁾.

Three stops means, of course, three opportunities for delay in taking off, and Porter Airlines appears to be no slouch at finding things to do while the plane is on the ground!

cheers
Chris

⁽¹⁾Or driven to Ottawa AND BACK again!
