Amazing that so much water moving with so much force could freeze like that.

Crazy daredevils!

Not to diminish the accomplishment, but he climbed the ice covered rock face next to the Falls.

“Ascending Frozen Niagara Falls” is literally impossible - the Falls are not frozen.

Oh great. Look for the new wave of illegal immigrants using this border-crossing route now that it was publicized. Before long they’ll taking jobs from American zamboni drivers.

Back in college a buddy of mine was into ice climbing and I went with him once. He climbs up this waterfall. I’m behind him (no ropes). I got up about 8 feet and then my legs started shaking, and couldn’t move up!

I climbed down, gathered my thoughts and said to myself it will be okay. Got to that same point and legs started shaking, and no matter how much I willed myself I couldn’t go up any farther. Pretty interesting to me - my body must have had a good instinct on what survival looks like!

Cool pics of something I will never do cause I don't like the cold and I hate to climb!

But awesome stuff!

Every Republican in Congress should study this, especially that dramatic pic in reply number one, as an example of what it means to have balls.
