Those guys are awesome, same people who climbed that tower in Shanghai (they climbed a lot of places, but that one got viral).
Check out their site.
They take fantastic pictures.

Was scrolling through the pics all wow, these are nice, doesn't look too...what the fuck he's on the side of a wall, fuck that.
 
I've never been that high on a building rooftop admittedly, but I was under the impression the wind can get really strong up there?

How has the wind not gotten one of them killed yet?

I've been on top of very tall buildings with an open observation decks (Taipei 101, the old WTC) and it can get windy there, but not the type of winds that can pick a man up (at least under normal conditions, I would imagine there could be very windy days and I would imagine they wouldn't go roofing on those days).

Yeah, fuck that.

Never saw this before and from there website, this is pretty funny

View down from the roof of one of the tallest buildings in Singapore.Interesting fact is that I entered the roofs illegally and I didn’t even think of any consequences, however I wasn’t caught. I spent 4 days in Singapore, two of them just walking around the city because on the second day I read about the strictness of Singapore laws. As it turned out you can easily spend up to 1 year in prison for breaking a lock and additionally you can be beaten with sticks.
 
I love this shit, god bless these guys. I'd especially love 3D versions of pictures like these that I could view in the Oculus Rift.

Sweet pics. These guys are really ballsy!!! I'm not scared of heights but the lack of steppable places would intimidate me.

Fucking hell, my fear of heights already gives me sweaty palms if i'm on a balcony on the 4th floor of a flat.

I remember doing the tour of the CN tower in Toronto, thought it might help me get over my fear of heights, i was wrong.
