Holy shit. I guess this is kinda old, but back in February these crazy MFs scaled the Golden Gate Bridge, hung out for a while, took EPIC pictures, and left without getting caught (or sleeping with the fishes). Here’s a snip of their riveting tale:

I had a sure grip on the cable but could not pull my self up. My mind raced. I was about to lose my holy grail because I had let myself get out of shape. My partner in crime dropped from the rail in exhaustion and warned of approaching vehicles. Adrenaline kicked in and I willed myself onto the orange cable.  “Just go!” she yelled.

    Friend of mine did the same thing back in the mid-90′s. He said he found an empty beer can and a pile of human shit at the top.

    He wrote an article about it for The Nose. Anyone remember The Nose? That was a great magazine.

    I have climbed up from Fort Point and drank with a buddy under the roadway, but this is just fucking insane.

    The Stanford wrestling team (and female conspirator) did this in the 90′s as well. Not sure how common it was back then, but I figured after 9-11 this would never even be possible.
