Travelling For Thrills?!? High Rise Buildings, Horror and Heartache



Remi Lucidi or Remi Enigma travelled the world for the thrill of looking down from the rooftops high rise buildings and sharing videos of his antics. He chose destinations with high buildings. 

Paid Work

What did he do for a living? His last location was in a hostel in Hong Kong. There he went to a high building and broke through a security door to reach the rooftop. So he doesn't sound as if he earned much money. But he must have spent on travel.

Surely he could have got a job with a circus? Or in movies as a stunt man? He needed an agent. 

He could have been an agent. He could have been the head of a team of agents cum performers. Event entertainers. Weddings. Best man. Dropping from overhead with the ring.

How about the traditional job of a steeplejack? Or mountain rescue, or suicide rescuer, or fire service rescue department, health and safety. 

He could have been a fitness trainer. 

He would have got legal access to heights as a window cleaner, crane operator, skyscraper building supervisor. Tower clock renovation, plant wall and irrigation installation. 

Did he want to have the excitement of travel as well as the excitement of heights? He could have been useful as a UN emergency rescue worker, or SAS, or trainer for the military, 

I was going to end with the words, rest in peace. That might be suitable for somebody who died in wartime, or an elderly person who had a long illness. But not quite the right phrase for a youngster and thrill seeker.

How shall we think of him, travelling on away from us, ahead of us. To the afterlife? He was taken too soon, to fly above the heights of planes to the heavens. We can imagine him as a happy, mischievous angel, watching down from above. Or still travelling to other galaxies.

Most of the commentators on the Daily Mail news site said in effect, not for me.

Those of us who are cautious will take out family insurance. Check the exclusion clauses.
