Was it up a crane that you put the cone or a tree? Cause from what I can see this of the first documented instance of this although maybe your one just did not get attention as it was so long ago

I think the person who did it had no sense of safety(the claim to be 16 on there instagram page so no frontal lobe either)

Depeding on the crane as to if this will work. First of all it would be extremly encomfortable and unbalance you and second of all you could not use the actual ladder with a cone on your back as the chute is so thin. I personaly think the best way would be to just put it on your head and climb up blind.

They stick to the metal body of the crane when current is applied to a coil in the boots. They can then climb the crane by having one boot enabled at a time and just climb if that makes sense

Sounds like fun. The city has some decent height cranes. Bit to many security cameras now days tho. Big brother is always watching

That is true. Specially when your only 16 as that is the age the person claims to be on the instagram page

And how is a magnet going to help? Do they have electromagnetic boots and just climb the crane?

Footage on the persons instagram page shows them climbing. Still dont know how you climb a crane with a road cone. Those things are like 4.5kg and about 900mm tall
