A follower doubted whether the images were real.
“It’s edited, it’s not real,” they wrote.
Another user chimed in, “What it’s like to have no value and appreciation for life.”
Free from the restraints of any security equipment, the Venezuelan has pulled some tricks at Caracas’ Torre Parque Central, a complex of residential, commercial and cultural developments.
Other stunts have been successfully performed at the Torre David, an unfinished skyscraper.
In the end, everything is possible, says Rengifo, because practice makes perfect.
“There’s no time to think up there because you have to train for a month or two to get it done,” he explained. “But when you arrive at the indicated place at 60 floors, 100 floors, whatever, you have to think about what you’re going to do, because when you arrive and think, you freeze.”
