It costs a whopping 180 RMB ($26USD) to visit the famous Shanghai Financial Center lookout. But since we do everything for less than 20 bucks on this channel, we need to find other alternatives for breathtaking rooftop views of Shanghai.
With the help of my buddy Mark Harrison, we visit a few of the “underground” lookouts and bring you along for the experience. (We got busted by the authorities a few times, but we had a blast doing it!)
Since I live in Shanghai, I don’t have nearly as many expenses as my usual videos, so we traveled around the city, ate Chinese street food, and took in the sights, all for only 50 RMB ($7.25)!!
*P.S. The price of the water bottle isn’t 2 cents; that was a mistake. It’s $0.29 USD.

- Great series mate, just binged watched every episode yesterday, great editing and easy viewing, keep it up
- Great video, it’s cool to see someone else’s take on life in here in Shanghai.
- Finally another video! After binge watching the last series in one day, I kept watching them over and over. This one is so different, the mix of food, the views and the danger was awesome. Kudos to you for your creativity. Please keep them coming.
- I can’t wait to come back to Shanghai for a third time this summer, seeing these videos makes me super excited! great videos
- You two guys leaning against a lightning rod and still looked so relax at 8:17, weren’t you glad that Thor was on vacation that night ?
- Finally who else has been waiting for this video and after watching this they wants another video to be uploaded by tomorrow
- the amount of times my heart either started racing or skipped a beat while watching every single rooftop scene.
- Great video. I saw this video 2 years and didn’t notice how close you guys went to the edge. In Beijing all the buildings roofs are locked.
- Keep it up man! You and Trevor are the best for entertaining videos about China. I’ve binged watch both your channels and it hits me right in the feels. So much nostalgia flowing in, as if I’m getting a feeling of living back in the motherland! If I’m ever in the Shanghai area we should hangout and eat some good local Chinese food! Other than that, good work man! I can’t wait to see your next vid.
- To get around the tripod restriction, tie a coin (with a hole in) or a washer to a string. Tie a screw to the other end, and screw it into your camera’s tripod hole. Stand on the coin and pull the camera up so the string is taught. Voila! Steady filming without a tripod.
