    I am Eddie's age and grew up going to see a lot of the same bands he did so I can understand some of where the stagediving influences come from. Yet, to this day, I have never see another singer sing from scaffolding and then rappel down using microphone wire. All hail Eddie. Thank God he survived it.

      I was a lighting tech in Seattle years prior and through this era, several of the riggers at one of the companies that lighted most of the Seattle shows were mountain and rock climbers.
      None did the scary shit Eddie did.
      Amazing to see him doing these feats. Also amazing that the band played on and watched.
      These days I imagine insurance riders have very specific wording stating EDDIE IS PROHIBITED FROM CLIMBING ABOVE THE STAGE. EDDIE IS ALLOWED TO ONLY CLIMB TO THE STAGE DECK!

    I respect Vedder for being a true friend to the Chili Peppers. Anthony Kiedis promised the Dalai Lama to do the Free Tibet concert but they lost their time slot due to some scheduling error. This crushed Kiedis but Vedder told the promoters to split Pearl Jam's time with RHCP or else he'd drop out. They relented and Kiedis was able to keep his word. That's being a true friend

    One missed is from The Edge in 1992 in Orlando, FL. Eddie climbed up to the rafters and the venue's security guards didn't realize that it was Eddie and went out onto the rafters and grabbed him in a headlock to bring him back in. The guards were holding on to him and both he and the crowd were trying to tell the security guards who he was, but they didn't listen and continued to struggle with him. Finally, the band stopped and Dave came out from behind the drumset and all of the band members just stood there watching all of this. Finally with the music stopped and one of the guitarists speaking into the microphone about who he was, the guards finally relented and let him go. The band went back to playing and Eddie dropped down to the crowd below, who promptly cowd-surfed him to the front of the stage. Crazy thing to see.

    11:07 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!When he went down the microphone wire, that was just iconic !!!!!!!!!!!!
    There will never ever be anything like Eddie Vedder !!!!!!!!!!!!!
    In the early 90's I was working in NY and would come home to NJ to go to City Gardens. There was nothing bigger than Pearl Jam and Nirvana. Everyone was talking about Kurt and Eddie. When I hear their music, it takes me back to then, the happiest time of my life !!!!!!! We worked hard, partied hard, and got up the next day and worked hard again !!!!!!!!! It was the end of what would become the last of the best times ever !!!!!!!!!! Thank you Eddie and Pearl Jam !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I had a friend in college who used to climb all kinds of buildings and stuff when we were out partying. Always drove me crazy. He was a rock climber, so he had skills, but he was usually drunk. Then one day he fell almost 40ft. He was trying to get from a column to the roof of a 3 story building and slipped. Luckily he was able to aim for a big bush and only broke his arm besides being all scraped up. If he had hit the concrete steps that were a few feet away that would have been it for sure. When I saw him slip I realized the saying "my heart stopped" was really a thing. There were probably ten of us there watching and we all thought he was going to die. He was laughing as we helped him out of the bush. All the girls were crying.

      @@BearInMindMedia LoL ! well if you watch he turned so he landed on his back into the crowd, These morons are jumping feet first into a crowd. Of course someone will take the brunt of that landing. There were never any injuries or lawsuits with Pearl Jam , it would have been big news. I can't remember who else but someone did it at a rap show and I think ended up paralysed from jumping off a balcony. Everybody moved and the guy hit the floor. Its just not applicable to that genre In my opinion.

      @@Natalie-ox7xm let's not forget that those different times and different crowds, ofc jumping feet first is dumb but also back then the intensity of the show and the hype of the crowd was so up there that ppl would head bang the rest of the concert with a broken neck anyway

    In '92 saw them during the ten tour in Hawaii, great show, played two nights, I was at first show and Eddie climbed on up was a solid 20 feet up in this amphitheater. The crowd telling to go on and drop so he did and in an instant it was only him and green grass. It took him a solid 5 to ten minutes to finally make it back to the stage. Still finished out strong. Really great show. My friends that went the second night says he did not drop the next night.

    I bet his record label loved seeing all that potential money swinging by a single microphone cable. Crazy! I remember going to a concert by the Nixons in the mid 90s. The lead singer (Zac Maloy) climbed up a huge stack of speakers. He was probably 30 feet up when the whole stack started swaying. If he stayed on, the stack would have fell, so he bailed and landed in the crowd. Amazingly enough, they caught him! It was pavement below, so he thanked them for saving his life and kept going with the show. Amazing...

    When you bring the element of danger in a show it becomes more emotional for the fans, its a life or death situation with somebody you love doing it. And the fact they're willing to do that for you strengthing the bond between artist and fan...that's why they have a cult following.20 years from now they still sell out any venue,
