Sounds cool. Although i cant imagine people to just be able to climb up walls like that. I can imagine you'd get very tired after a building or two

Don't dust your house for a month or three, and it will look as if you have spiderman abilities.

I work for a cleaningcompany, if anyone's place is clean here, it's mine. you could eat of the floor here, and that doesn't mean you'll find cookies on my carpet.

i think the rain would get kinda 'stuck' between the gekko bristles. therefore each step loosing traction up the wall. i guess you'd have to stay there till the wall dried [img]tongue.gif[/img]

this would be great if they could mass manufacture it, but there lies the problem. oh well back to the drawing board i spose.

and the way to let go would be to pull the tape. i think its a bit like velco, it sticks even under load, but if you pull from the right angle you can separate it.
