Les Miles rappels off 24-story building for charity because he’s awesome like that
There should be a drinking game: Two truths and a lie, Les Miles Edition.
"Les Miles rappelled off a 24-story building." Truth or lie?
It's Les Miles. Truth.
The zany, do-anything LSU coach's latest trick came in downtown Baton Rouge, as he rappelled off the One American Place Building to raise awareness for the "Over the Edge for Adoption" campaign. And if you saw this news earlier in the day on Twitter, and know anything about Miles, you weren't too surprised.

The stunt was for a great cause, to bring attention to adoption awareness. Miles wasn't the only one to coast down the building. LouisianaDaily.com said many local celebrities, including politicians and Miss Louisiana Laruen Vizza also were slated to participate. But Miles' participation probably drew more attention than the others.

The video on the top of the post was of his practice rappel, here's the real thing from a distance (he's the one on the right):
And one more picture of Miles ready to go down the side of a building, just because it's so tremendous (though, we should just wait a bit, Miles will probably do something to top this in a week or so):
Wait, another classic one from inside the building:
Oh, fine, one more from Clay Travis at Outkick The Coverage:
Les Miles, everyone!
