2579 Steps

Posted on 06:47 by Unknown
Excited by the news that Danny Boyle's new movie 127 Hours will be playing at TIFF, James Franco decided to channel the energy of his character in the film, Aron Ralston, the mountain climber who amputated his own arm to free himself after being trapped by a boulder for nearly five days. Franco felt the best way to expel this energy was through a physical challenge, so he spent the day climbing all 2,579 steps of Toronto's CN tower, starting from the tower's base and ending up in the skypod.
