Yes, each step was a struggle between willpower, and sheer panic!
Panic hovers around you. You have to chase it away, it will sink you easily!
Step by step, inching forward in mid-air, you crossed the pole all by yourself!

Up there, any mistake will take you all the way down, the rope being the only thing saving you! No fooling!

At the end, the triumph of bravery over terror!
