JESUS. Don’t watch this footage if you’ve a crippling fear of heights, because it’s pretty much your nightmare come true.

This footage of a man climbing the Poolbeg chimneys is going viral today and it’s nail biting stuff.

The towers stand 207m above ground, but were absolutely no problem for Danish daredevil Oliver to climb. While on a trip to Dublin, he scaled the towers with a selfie stick, and it’s completely nerve-racking to watch.

Writing on Youtube, 17-year-old Oliver said:

I was on a trip to Ireland and I went to Dublin. I wanted to visit this amazing place and climb the famous chimneys in Dublin. I went out to the old and abandoned place one day, climbed over fences, jumped over walls and explored this awesome place.

The scenery was amazing and I will never forget it. It took me a while to get up the 200meter chimney and I was concerned about getting busted because I did it an afternoon. I could easily be seen whilst I was climbing. The chimneys are not in use, but there is another part of the area which is. So there were security guards out there. I performed the climb without the use of safety equipment of any kind.

The lads have previously climbed towers in Budapest, Denmark, and Europe’s tallest chimney in Slovenia.

The Poolbeg video was posted to Youtube three weeks ago, but is only picking up steam today.

Needless to say, this is extremely dangerous and illegal so don’t try it yourself. The ESB told the Irish Times that they will be increasing security at the Ringsend complex and reminded people that the complex is private property and trespassers will be prosecuted.
