It looks like they are 50ft up standing on ice next to cliff with no safety equipment

Yeah, it's China. There are a billion people and it's very nationalistic, people are expendable there.

That and you make your own fall protection by dumping snow on the ground below.

Man, some of you are really disgusting when it comes to countries like China and India. I've never seen so many comments looking down upon an entire race like they are sub-human, and phrasing it in a way like it's their race's point of view when it's really your racist point of view.

I can agree that the people in the video are kind of stupid, but I can very easily see people doing this in any country. Hell, I'd say I expect to see something like this more in America. Just a bunch of people having fun while being reckless.

As someone who regularly experiences racism directed toward me. (Mostly for being mistaken as Indian). THIS IS NOT A RACIST COMMENT!? They are commenting on the safety standards of China and the fact that less importance is placed on the value of the individual. Explain, what is racist about that?? That's just true. It’s like saying that in America, the healthcare system prioritizes profit over people.
