At 10:15 this morning, Li Zhiwei started to climb the 320-meter-high Nina Plaza in Tsuen Wan. From the sky to the dark, it was difficult to resist the strong wind and the rope knotted. He decided to stop at 8 pm and completed the feat on the 75th floor. The height is 222 meters.

It was only 48 meters away from the 270-meter rooftop, but Li Zhiwei became the first wheelchair person in the world to climb a skyscraper. He couldn't help crying after the event, and said bluntly with regret, "But I really did my best."

Review of Li Zhiwei's journey: After

climbing for more than ten hours, he climbed to the top and almost lost control in strong wind. Fingers cramp and new gloves broke

During the nearly ten-hour journey, the biggest difficulty Li Zhiwei faced was definitely the continuous untying of the rope, and the strong wind kept blowing him, making it difficult to move forward, and he almost lost control at high altitudes.

He said: "I really don't want to give up... Actually I have physical strength when I was in fashion, but it was too windy. The ropes up and down were knotted. I can't get up and down. Even if I don't want to say it, I can only Say, I'm going to stop."

Li Zhiwei was interviewed on the rooftop. He looked at his sports watch, which was 270 meters high; when he was on the 75th floor, he decided to stop for a moment, which was 222 meters high.

"I really don't know how long I have been entangled on the 75th floor. One clock? How many hours? But I can't stabilize my body with the glass of the building. I have to use two ropes on the left and the right. I try many ways to maintain my balance, but I really can't do it. This is the helplessness of climbers, it depends on the weather."

Li Zhiwei started at about 10:15 this morning. He has been in the sky for more than 10 hours. He has enjoyed the breeze during the day and the bitter wind after nightfall. Thinking back to this process, he couldn't help crying and said frankly that One more regret": "I am getting older, my body is poor, and my body has many problems. I don't know if I still have enough energy to cope with the next time... Maybe it's like my life, full of regrets, but I really tried my best. "

"There were many cramps along the way, but I managed to overcome them by will. When I got to the 75th floor, the wind was so strong that it interrupted me and my head was dizzy. I kept slapping my head, asking myself to stay awake and calmly think about ways. Untie the knot, it's a pity that my body temperature dropped too fast."

He is especially grateful to all the behind-the-scenes team for their help: "When the ropes were severely knotted, the rope team continued to study with me how to solve them and thought of many ways. The rescue team was also waiting by the side all the time, especially when I returned from the 75th floor to the 65th floor fire barrier. , The rescue team has prepared everything. And all the staff and the citizens of Hong Kong. Without you, there would be absolutely no challenge this time. Everyone in every position has tried their best. You are really perfect."

When asked if there would be another one, Li Zhiwei said with a slight disappointment that he must settle down first and sum up the journey. After all, he could not reach the end in the end and failed the entire team.

He only thinks about the future after he rests, but in the end he doesn't forget to encourage Hong Kong people: "If you have a dream, you have to practice it, but you only have one hand left."

The result may not be as perfect as Li Zhiwei imagined, but such a wonderful ten hours will be a page of warm blood in the hard 2021 that is destined to be hard.
