back to you. thank you very much. the last hour we showed you rick reichmuth preparing for a daredevil descent worthy of santa claus. now he s ready to take one of stanford s largest buildings on. rick, every year you say to yourself, who talked me too this? who talked you into going to the top of the landmark building in stanford, connecticut, right now with two very special elves? sorry. we just had a little bit of a technical glitch right here at the start! are we good? it s a good thing i looked down because i was like, wait, something looks wrong there. so what happened? you know, like there is a lot of cables and ropes and something seemed to be not quite connected in the way you might want it to be connected. that was a very good catch. we really like you, rick. thank you. so i think as always, the first step is the hardest.
