This Photographer Takes Terrifyingly Beautiful Photos At The Top Of Buildings

Andrej Ciesielski is a Munich-based thrill-seeker and urban explorer. While Ciesielski travels the world documenting the culture of various cities like Shanghai and Paris, his main trick of the trade is climbing skyscrapers to take the most terrifying selfies that exist.

Ciesielski doesn’t use any safety equipment when climbing buildings. His photos are a testament to fearlessness and invoke feelings of anxiety, vertigo and nervous wonder in those of us who prefer to take an elevator to the top floor of a building rather than scale the side like Spider Man. He’s clearly a brave traveler — much more brave than most of us.

If that’s not terrifying enough for you, this video of Ciesielsky climbing a 240 meter high skyscraper in Hong Kong will give you chills.
