Don't watch this video if you get motion sick and don't watch it while eating
lunch. Uggg.
Major props to those guys. Is it me, or are there times where he unclips his
tether and is not attached to the tower? Even if you were tethered, I'd
imagine if you fell, your chances of being impaled on one of those ladder rungs
is pretty high.
That is not the job for me!Comment

They should wear parachute/flying squirrel wings and just jump when they're done.

Wow
The climb up the ladder I would pass on but I sure would like to take that elevator ride!

Heights don't bother me at all, but those hand rungs look like they could just snap right off.

my favorite part is where the narrator says, "once you reach the top of the tower itself, it's time to go outside...", and i'm thinking, "gonna do what!!!!!"Last edited by toolguy1000; 11-22-2010, 06:07 PM.there's a solution to every problem.......you just have to be willing to find it.Comment

Man, oh man! I like heights, but that video made parts of my anatomy try to climb up into my throat. Makes me glad I'm relatively safe and warm inside a classroom full of teenagers.

climber #1 to climber #2: "Did you remember to turn it off?"
or
Climber #1 to Climber #2: I think I gotta take a leak...
And why the heck don't they leave the 30 lb. set of tools at the top instead of having to carry it there each time? Somebody going to steal it?

If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

hen I posted that I thought back to my radio days. I had to replace a clearance light one third of the way up our 100-foot tower. You know how hard it is to get anything one when every digit and orifice is clamped tight?Bob

I can't imagine how sore their hands/feet and shoulders/legs must be after going up and down.
With my luck, I'd drop a tool from the top.BillComment

No thank you! I got jittery just watching the video!Comment

My youngest worked as a tower dog on cell towers. He's planning to go back to climbing in January. Good money if you don't mind living on the road and spending your days at 200' up. I think his highest climb was around 400'.
Not sure he would even want to try that climb....Don, aka Pappy,
