Short transcript excerpt from Guy Kawasaki’s YouTube video showing a vantage point above the Cirque du Soleil stage at The Mirage. Multiple speakers (including a guide named Jessica) discuss their location on the technical grid (upstage/upstairs), estimate distances (110 ft and about 140 ft to various catwalks/points), and comment on the precariousness of the platform.

Okay, so we're not backstage. We're upstage. We're upstairs.
In the technical grid.
Okay. And we are 110ft from there.
Yes, 110 from that catwalk. So I would say it's about 140 from here.
Okay. And this is what is. There's my guide. There's Jessica. And this is what it looks like above Cirque du Soleil. And if you look carefully down through here, you can see that.
Theater seat.
There's not much holding us up here.
