The highest/riskiest spot you've put your bjd

Uh...My doll is fearless o.o; I don't know how many dangerous places I've put Luel. He's been on high shelves, in trees, by water...


on a window...you can see he's only standing on his heels...




bunkbed ladder.


just kuz...
the car was like that when i found it. srsly.

 

um....you can't really tell in the picture, but that ledge is about 2 inches wide and about 2 feet above a cement sidewalk DX

 

Another tree-photo xD The bush was in a concrete planter about 2 feet above the ground, and where I put her in the bush was another foot-or-so above the ground... It didn't seem that high because she was still below eye level. Just after I took this photo she slid forwards and... Well there were no injuries other than her hand popped off. (and I nearly had a heart attack) xD

 

I put Dice up on an elevated railing overlooking Mount Fuji. (red arrow shows the snow-capped peak)
The wind was blowing pretty hard!

And later on, Mount Fuji itself! Wind, you can see was almost close to really knocking his wig right off. But I prayed and snapped a quick pic anyway! Haha XD

The latter one, though its not apparent, is really risky because he was basically sitting on a wooden pole that dangled us over the edge of the mountain side.

 

The highest for me was a tree, and they were both perfectly safe there (thankfully XD But I tried to be quick just in case :P)

The result:

 

Last year I had my Ayahse in my cherry tree, it was also a windy day, she did fell, but I caught her in time.

 

This is definitely the worst I've done. He was up in a tree that was a good 6'+ off the ground above a bunch of limestone rocks. My husband was out with me to play catcher in case he decided to take a fall. XD He was safely in a net of vines.



And for the full effect:

 

*rubs hands together*

These are old pictures, but...


On an overpass, near the University of Minnesota...this was a pretty dangerous shot, I admit! He didn't fall, though. That doll took a couple bad spills in his life with me, but he never fell off any overpasses, I promise.


Looking out over the mighty Mississippi. This picture looks terrible, but I was supporting him with my entire arm, so he wasn't in any danger.

One day I am definitely going to take a doll to the top of a skyscraper...

 

Not that risky but eh. XD
Okay, so.. The second picture shows how risky it is.
And there ARE gaps on the tracks. XD
I didn't go to the center though! -trembles-
Oh, and it's okay, no trains go there anymore. XDD

 

I put my Lishe, Antaliya, up on a jungle gym one time. I was a good foot above my head, so it was about 7 feet, and I was joking with my friend that it looked pretty, and she was having fun while I was having a heart attack.





The pictures turned out nice, but I probably wouldn't do it again. I was really scared of her losing her balance, as it was a little windy.

 

He was about one head higher than me when I put him up there but he remain steady and didn't move or fall whatsoever.

 

I used to put dolls on my balcony railing in my old apartment all the time.





Nobody ever fell.

 

You can't tell from this angle but she's actually standing on a railing that's barely wide enough for her feet. It's about a 5 foot drop off the one side onto pavement :'D I don't know what I was thinking. I didn't even hold onto her!

 

I took Riku with me to the Biltmore mansion in Asheville, NC on my birthday. We took the rooftop tour and... well...




He was sitting on the cement handrail...


Never again.

 

Dalamar likes to pose on the gate to the field, he is usually good, but did leap off into the field once ^^;
luckily he was ok





Recently I took these pictures of Cat, she was standing on the edge of the railings on a old bridge, if she had fallen she would have likely fell a huge drop into the river and prob never seen again, thankfully she was fine, was scary taking the pictures though

 

I don't like too risky...but his character just likes heights. So we compromise a bit^^

 

I put two of my dolls on a cliff face and left them unaided to get this photo (and this is with an 8x zoom)



You can really see how small the ledge they were on was:

 

I am such a chicken when it comes to taking pictures, I am sure my dolls are going to fall over just standing on solid ground >_< the most risky shot I took was in Devil's Den here in Gettysburg and you can't really tell from the picture but the rock that my Gwynedd is standing on was about as tall as I am. My boyfriend actually took the pictures and I leaned back enough to not be in the but still standing next to the rock. Good thing I did because it was windy and she did fall forward, but I was able to grab her before she went down. I managed to get brush burn up and down my arms from the rock though *^^*

 

The highest I've put Newt was atop the St. Augustine light house. googled pic
It's 165 feet high, but I don't know how high it is at the railing...
I sat her on the rail (never let her go though LOL), and stood her against the wall for a quick pic.



I had planned to stand, or at least sit, her near the rail and get a pic, but two things stopped me:
1) It was super windy that day, and
2) it was very crowded. Not to mention a majority of the crowd was my sister's 5th grade class, and a handful of them were fascinated with Newt
But, the very next lighthouse I visit I will get a shot of her near the rail

Highest place she's been alone? Tree, up about 7ft, as I stood under her and took pictures lol

 

On the rail of a cruise ship. There was nothing behind her. And if she fell, she would have fallen about 9 or 10 stories down - all the way into the sea.


^ where I took the pic.

Thank goodness the ship was anchored or the wind would have blown my doll off.

 

I'm a horrible dolly-mother.
Danny: Always at my grandmothers, I put him up high. Sorry you can't really tell how high the height is from these, but I'll say aprox. Height.

Well, first off, in my icon. I had to climb up that thing. Probaly about...20 feet up. At least.



About 4 feet up.


3 feet, nothing but his loose strung arms supporting him actuaklly, since his feet weren't touching it.


Probaly 3.7 feet up.

And My Ani:

Probaly about 5 feet, since the branch was almost as tall as I am, and I'm about 5'2.(Yes...I'm short -___-) But only a TWIG was supporting her, and I was shocked she stayed.

Ok, I'll stop spamming you guys now! ^^

 

A railing in my house. About 12 feet off the ground. Scared the crap out of me. I wouldn't let go of her.

 

Not my doll but I was there and it shows how high it was and it was above water xD


here's my girl on the same wobbly branch

 

In this picture, Kaleb was a good eight feet off the ground. I'm about 5'10", I had to step up onto the roots that were grown out and then reach over my head to place him. He was well placed though, so I wasn't worried~


This tree was small - He's only maybe four feet off the ground, but he wasn't supported well. And with all the kids playing and running around, I was a little nervous...


I think where he was in this tree was just about six feet up...But I held him, because there wasn't any way for him to support himself.


Little Nikolai hasn't been outside yet, as I'm afraid his wig will blow off...but in this picture he's just about five and a half feet off the ground, resting on the cat cages in the house. XD

 

.x. well. not my boy... don't have the time to shoot with him yet... but here's my friend's boy.

on top of a railing... with nothing below. @_@ he'd have fallen if I'd let go of him. I chickened out after three shots...


this shows how far he is from the ground... @_@


we're on my rooftop. which is all the way on top of here...

 

Here is two of my dolls on top of a fence that was 6'+ tall. It looks more dangerous than it was though, since they were really secure, and there was 2 feet of fresh snow on the ground

 

I put Bbub on top of this! He's at the bottom in the first pic and on the top in the second, BAD idea on a windy day, he fell off! luckily nothing bad happened to him apart from a piece inside his headcap that broke, that was easily fixed with glue and he's been back to himself now after a couple of days worth of headaches!

 

Eitka's never been very high, but she has posed by my pond several times.


I was directly in front of her, hoping to catch her if she fell. Looks like she's pretty far, but she wasn't: if she had fallen she would have bonked her head on that cluster of slate then rolled right into the waterfall. O_O When my new tiny arrives, she''ll be up in trees nad practically IN the pond, so I'll have to be more careful.

 

About 4.5 feet up in the air, so not that high, but he was sitting on a piece of metal that was about a half an inch in width and over top a mixture of concrete and bricks. The wind was also blowing. Dx It's not as impressive as some, but it was still nerve-racking.

Poor Lyric nearly fell several times, but I still managed to get about 20 different pictures/poses. 200 pictures total...

 

Oh, I have a couple of these!

Dollfie Dream, hanging out on a swing chain about five feet off the ground.


Kid Delf up in a tree. ^_^

 

Hehe, here Aiyana is about 4 feet up above a stone staircase..

 

I have one...

you can see that other house's roof to make sure the high levels...^^;;;
but he not fall....He stand like a rock..I swear...

 

Here's mine:

Me and my friend were taking pictures of my dolls in a burned-down building last summer.
I made Joy sit there, and I was all "Don't you dare fall!" the whole time. It was something like... Uh... 10 to 15 meters from the ground? Well it was high. very high. And if she had fallen, it would've been really difficult to get down there to get her back. (It was really difficult to move around with all those broken doorways and ceiling materials on the way..)

 

I have a habit of putting my dolls in dangerous situations. >.>;



Suspension bridge over the bear pit at the zoo. The wind picked up shortly after snapping off a few shots and I just caught Aki (the one in back) before he went over. x_@



Life-size moose somewhere in Salem. ^^;



Bridge over a river somewhere in the middle of nowhere..



Same river, only with us on the opposite side of it from the dolls. We didn't actually lose any dolls to this river, but we did lose Token's wig to the current. ^^;;



Erm. x.x This one actually had me worried, though he's only about five feet off the ground. It was more the plethora of rocks involved...



Tree. ^_^ Well, fallen tree, but he's still above my head.



About gave Blizz a heart attack with this one. Bridge over a large river, about two stories off the ground.



Erm, Mom's front balcony. On the railing on Mom's front balcony. Freaked her out too. ^^;



Same balcony. Shaial demonstrating how far down the ground is.



Rock. Ocean. Incoming tide. ^^;;



This is the only time I have ever failed to get my desired picture. I could not safely leave that rock to take pictures, he just wouldn't stand with any modicum of stability. :/

What's funny is, out of everywhere they've been, the only times they've taken damage has been from falls from the same level. -__-;; Fifty feet in the air? No problem! Sidewalk? Faceplant! >__<

 

Wow. Those are some risky photoshoots! The results are absolutely breathtaking though..

 

Beware, hanging Puki below. No need to say that he wasn't happy at all.

​

 

It's a good thing pukis have magnets in their feet. This is about 5 feet up, over concrete.
Totally worth it though, as this is one of my favorite shots so far.

 

It's a pretty tall metal bunny..um..thing. ^^; And it was slippery but once I got Ranji settled he was good as gold.



This is the ledge of the balcony of my apartment..it's where I do most of my outdoor dolly shooting..and as you can see it's high..and sometimes really windy. ^^; I don't worry too much because it's wide and I only stand up the dolls I trust not to fall, so far we've only had one jumper but she was saved.



This was a life size statue..that was elevated on a bed of rocks..



Taken at the International Rose Test Garden meet last year..I was so worried Token would fall and break..^^: He's not the best stander.

 

This was part of a photoshoot that didn't make the final cut, mostly because the distance made everything too grainy and we were having trouble gauging the angle of Cooper's gaze. I'd guess he was a good 14 feet in the air over my head on this rusty staircase.


Here's the zoomed out shot, you can see the top of DH's head on the right.

 

I spent way too much of yesterday's meetup finding hazardous places to balance my littles. ^^;;



4-5 feet up, standing freely.



Up over my head, maybe 7 feet to the ground?



High enough I had to stand on my toes to get him up there. ^^;

 

Took this one a couple weeks ago. She was like 4 feet from the ground. Nerve wracking because her legs were kind of kicky.

 

This is the worst I can find:



I may have taken a risk sitting Raz' on a 4' leaf village ninja giraffe, which are known to be unpredictable.

 

Above my head, so....over five feet high. Pretty sturdy though, if I remember correctly.

She actually did fall once from this one. Luckily there was a thick layer of supporting plants underneath, because it was near the beach and the ground was mucky.

 

This is the riskiest and highest place i've put my dolls thus far. It's about 2 1/2 stories up but what worried me more was the blowing wind and the concrete down below us.

 

I've got a few! ^_^ First off, the Chinese Elm outside!


Looking out, I was holding onto an ankle for this one. About 7 feet up (I was in the tree as well).


My poor boy! I reached out and set him on a distant branch, held on by nothing but his thighs and a tiny branch I put in his hand. This is about 9-10 feet up! Though he did NOT fall, if he decided too, I wouldn't have been able to save him because I was busy trying to keep MYSELF in the tree. And to top it all off; WIND, LOTS OF IT.

And now lets move inside to my bedroom! I'm on the second floor, but I still reach higher!


Here's Nika on the edge of my bed... about 7 feet up. XD I sleep on a loft bed! The celling in my room is about 10 feet, and you can see the ceiling in this shot.


And my scariest shot! Nika hanging from the chandelier in my room! D: It was for New Years and I thought, "He's got strong wire, lets hang him up by one leg over a hard wood floor!" His left foot is touching the 10 foot high ceiling. o_o Here, I'm sitting on my bed (from the previous picture) and there's a ton of blankets and pillows below him. Again, you can see the ceiling, and for referance, that shelf behind him is about 7 feet tall! XD

Okay, I haven't done anything too hazardous since the tree pics, so the end!

 

well this pose wasn't that risky, but when he was standing there...or better, when my 70cm boy was standing up there:


His feet didn't fully fit onto the ledge, so I was always ready to jump if he showed any signs of moving forward...

 

I really only have one scary picture. I have pics of my boys in tress, but I was never really worried about them beause they were always way more stable there then I was in the positions I was taking them in



What scared me about this shot, as you can see, is the river below. If he'd fallen, I don't think I'd ever have found him. I can stand in that river and not get caught in the current, but Kirk's a lot smaller and lighter than I am So that's why I have him sitting instead of standing...not that confident

 

Mountains!

 

Puki sitting on the wall of a scenic overlook. Not sure how high up this actually is, but if you went closer to the edge and looked over you could see the road and cars/trucks below

 

I'm back! For another round of dolly endangerment.



Feh, you can't even really tell, but what he's standing on is the balcony ledge above the canyon that makes up my grandparents' back yard. He's a good 2-3 stories above the ground.




Random deteriorating support beam holding up the porch roof and overlooking the beginning of the same canyon from the prior pic.




Dear gods I was nervous. He's been so unpredictable lately. But he stood there like a rock.




Not too risky, but certainly high! Playing in the rigging of the Star of India

 

When I did this pic of Alice [DoB Arie]...



...she fells down...



...but I had luck, I caught her XD​

 

Ok...not exactly a terribly risky spot. I'm a little nervous taking her outside since she has no long pants to guard her legs, so this was my first legit attempt to get her to stand (without her platforms, since she's been barefoot most of the time, anyway). She was able to stand pretty well, here, too. It's above my AC, and she stood so well, I was able to not really think about her falling when I left to go to the bathroom. She won't stand well on our dining room table; maybe because my windowsill isn't shiny, so she can't slip and slide around.

But once I finally get some pants for her, I'll see about actually 'risky' shots.

 

While this one might not look to bad, this picture was literally taken in the middle of a river.

 

I can't believe I haven't posted these before... Anyway!

Ophelia on a small windowsill, about 4 feet high

Probably the riskiest thing I've ever done.
Basically I stacked a bunch of flat rocks on top of eachother in this creek. Where I set the rocks, the waer was maybe 4 inches deep, but it was fast running over a drop of maybe 3 1/4-4 feet. The water took up at least 70% of that drop, and then continued to flow farther down at a steady pace.
So basically, I wasn't in danger of LOSING her, but it was possible that I would bring home a very wet, possibly broken doll.
LUCKILY, nothing happened. But to this day my friend that was with me still thinks I'm crazy for wanting this shot.

 

These I took at my college parking deck. Thierry could have slipped off the fence but luckly he didn't.


Took these photos very quickly!

 

Here is Michael standing in a tree. I could actually only reach to his waist, so his head was way above mine. I had to stand on tiptoe to place him on that branch.

 

Effie at the top of a waterfall, about a 14 foot drop if the wind wasn't in my favor.

 

The twins on the rooftop...





Deena and the early spring, on my window





Johnny on the same window, though I was holding his hand



...for he's not quite as fearless as his daredevil of a sister...
