[Houdini]

Found a book called House Gymnastics at a friends'. 

Graded 1 to 5 (being hard) I flashed a 5 but house lacked a particular kind of ballustrade and unable to continue I invented a 6 for them on the spot.  Recall a time pissed when I now realise must have been at least a 7 on friends' ceiling beams above a full kitchen sink. 

If you don't know what I'm on a about there is a site.

Any other claims?  Thoughts? 

Jumping into a corner would be a good one.

We had some seriously hard problems in some of my old student houses, Houdini do you remember that big house i lived in for a while (had a party there for Jez's b'day), that had an amazing bridging problem on the stairs- nodder almost sacrificed a day in the peak to finish it!
There was also a very scary jump above the stairs to a small gloss painted,dusty ledge -pure death. I'd draw a picture but you'd all puke in your mouths. The ultimate was to do it in socks for extra spice.

In one of my old student flats in Glasgow (which was very old and had good frames) I had a loooong traverse down one side of the stairs, around the landing and back up the other side of the stairs.  The crux involved a sprag on the lightswitch and a precarious, dymamic slap for a poor sloper.  Grade wise it was between font 7b and 7c depending on shoes (usually done in floppy trainers).  It was well pumpy too.  Despite living there 18 months I only did it a few times.  Probably F8a sport 
The problems on the web site look piss easy.  Which are the difficult ones?

Go through them to find the 5 star ones.  Also some people have invented others which look nails.  I'm not happy about the grading: they've given a front lever above a door as being 4 stars in difficulty.  Surely a five compared to the other fives.  The are kinda piss.

Scouse:  Yes I remember the house.  That was the night Jez Stephenson had paint squeezed into his hair as he slept drunkenly.    The jump must be an 8!

One time I managed to get completely horizonal up against a ceiling, beams @ 90° to my body (wood of beam protruding 2" from ceiling), back against the ceiling, feet on a wall, and started to traverse across the ceiling via a mixture of pulling back against the wall using a beam near my thighs, and pushing out arms foreward palming the beam 'above' my head.  It was going well for a while till I fell in the kitchen sink.  In fact I'm upgrading this to an 8 too.
