One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 12 I went to Documenta IX in Kassel, DE with my family. While there my parents lost sight of me only to be notified by onlookers as I was climbing a multistory sculpture built only of wooden logs and rope. I had made it to the top only to see the crowd terrified of my recklessness. Once I realized peoples fear for my safety I climbed down. That led into urban exploring in my later teens.
