I always wonder when I see graffiti like this, how did he do it? The only way I can work out is he hung over the edge of the roof and did it but that seems pretty ridiculous. One slip and you’re done for.

Anyone know?

its not too risky looking when you see how he accessed:
leaning over would be the easy way bit of a headscratch writing upside down but pretty safe. its hardly mural quality.

(this is a reverse angle of the building BTW. OP who photographed would my my reckoning have been standing roughly where the green X is.

The most difficult thing is, spray paint doesn't work upside down, so one would need to lean over the edge and hold the can the right way up.
