In the video shared on Facebook, he said, “Now this is a sport… now that’s a sport I would like to try. Yeah!!!!!”, being as expressive as ever. The change in his expression from being curious to being excited to break out in a big, wide smile is worthwhile to watch. His big ‘Hurray’ moment is when he says, ‘Yeah!!’ in a loud, cheering tone. He continues, “Pole me up, Daddy”, in a loud voice, almost a yell. It was an indicator of how much he wanted to try that for himself but laced his quote with his ‘sharp’ (pun unintended) humor.

Sharp reacted in his unique style with that quote. He made no attempts to disguise his desire to try extreme pole climbing. Extreme climbing was the first sport in the video, and what followed were weirder and riskier extreme sports. Sharp wanted nothing to do with quite a lot of them.

The Art of Pole climbing and other extreme sports

In extreme pole climbing, the climber comes running in towards the erect pole and jumps on it. Grasping a firm grip on it, he/she then climbs up that pole using their limbs. Each climb till they reach atop that pole, at which point the pole tilts towards the ground, and the climber jumps off safely, thus succeeding in their mission. The pole is erect on a water body, and any failure to successfully land on it or climb atop will imbalance the climber, throwing him/her in the water. This would disqualify them.
