amberjack1234 Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 (edited) Fantastic Randy. It always amazes me the beauty of China.

amberjack1234 Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Holy crap it looks like that those mountains would have been barrier enough. Those first stairs would have killed me just to have to climb them. Good video Randy. I had no idea that there was any part of the great wall that was that steep and rugged. No need for me to go there. Link to comment
amberjack1234 Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 I liked the one of the 19-year-old boy saving 14 people in an apartment building using a crane. You remember a loooong time ago the argument that I had with the Sweed about concrete buildings burning? It is not the building it's the contents. All the people above die of smoke inhalation but you don't see much of that in the news. Link to comment
