The Scariest Moment of My Life: I Almost Fell From 900ft

In this clip, we hear the story of what was almost a fatal urban exploration stunt at the iconic New York Palace Hotel.

What starts as a rooftop photography mission with friends quickly turns into a near-death experience. After sneaking through the luxury hotel during rush hour and making it to the roof, they discover a massive open shaft in the middle of the building with a rope hanging over the edge. Wanting the perfect shot, he decides to hang off the side of the hotel hundreds of feet above Manhattan.

The first attempt wasn’t dramatic enough for the photo he wanted, so they tried again — this time adding a risky hand-grab shot for effect. But the second he let go of the rope with one hand, he slipped and nearly fell 900 feet onto the streets below. He says he was only inches away from death as he slid down the rope before catching himself and screaming for his friends to pull him back up.

What’s even crazier is that after almost dying, they still went for a third attempt because he still wasn’t satisfied with the shot.

This story dives into the obsession with getting the perfect photo, the mindset behind extreme urban exploration, and how one small mistake can instantly turn into a life-or-death situation.
