So I climbed the stairs of the CN Tower yesterday for a charity event.

1776 stairs (144 flights)

Took me 15 minutes, 1 second.

The records listed on the wall at the top were quite amusing...

Fastest stair climb was 7:41

Fastest stair climb on a pogo stick: something like 58 minutes

Most stairs in one day: Up the tower 17 times.

Other numbers I don't remember, but had records listed:

Fastest stair climb on a modified motorcycle!!

Fastest stair climbs while carrying items, including: Engine from a Suzuki Samurai, 200 lb pumpkin.

Most stairs fallen down: all 1776, on purpose.

People will do some dumb crap to set a record.

TYD, thats great that you took part in that event. The CN Tower is very cool!

The first day the Golden Gate Bridge was opened it was only open to pedestrian traffic. People did some pretty stupid things to be the first to cross the bridge doing something. I don't remember them all, but I do remember one little girl was the first to stick her tongue out as she walked the entire span. One guy walked on his hands across the bridge.
