Honolulu Ascent/Descent – The Amazing Race
The Producers of The Amazing Race asked us to create an angled ascent up a 400 foot tall building for the season finale. With no fall protection present at the top we had to build our own as we created the structure. In order for contestants to clear the building we had to lean the front wall of our rig 20 degrees out over the building. Once contestants reached the top and spotted the next clue, we hooked them up for a Aussie-style descent straight down the side. For five days of rigging, shooting, and striking we had a blast creating this unique spectacle.
