Ok, I admit, my first thoughts were, "I hope they fall." Yeah, I know, what kind of person does that make me? I just thought that this type of stunt was stupid and dangerous and they deserve what they get. I WAS SO WRONG!
The views were breathtaking and at times I was paralyzed by the fear of heights. Who knows why people do what they do. But the couples stories, and the 2 coming together to create the works of art, I was so drawn in and I only wanted to see them succeed.
A real love story about TRUST!! Absolute trust and confidence. Ignore the nay-sayers. The ending had me cheering for them?

I Was Really Moved By Their Story
once upon a time...
...kids went to college, got an apprenticeship, learned a trade, became sportspeople if they had the talent or just simply got a job. Nowadays that ain't good enough and to get ahead you gotta go all social media and provide content that is gonna entertain, shock and/or mortify to get a rabid audience in sufficient numbers that you can make a living the 2024 way. This is stunning, impressive, compulsive and horrifying all in one package - yes they've got skill, sure they've got balls but yes they're also breaking the law and one slip and they're dead - but hey, that's just more content eh and sure Netflix will happily make a documentary out of that too, because why not? We're heading towards a dark and dystopian future for generations to come if this is the way entertainment is going - do we really need to give legitimacy to, not to mention glorification of, arguable lunacy..?
Terrifying but couldn't look away
I feel physically sick at heights, that movie THE FALL, I put myself through. I have to say I'm a huge horror fan.... but these types of movies with heights really make me recoil and fully feel fear.
Now this is horror to me but real life. But I just felt absolutely wrapped up in the story of these 2 and found myself willing them to actually manage their mammoth final act.
It's a documentary but I felt myself getting fully drawn into the "story". What a couple.... all these reviews "criminals" blah blah.
Imagine having the will and determination of being so confident and successful at such a niche thing?
I was emotional at the end, their emotions were real and you felt that. Very well done docfilm. I recommend fully.
