Good question. I am surprised OHP didn't think of it first though.

I sometimes like to give others the opportunity [yes]

mustn't be greedy eh !

**Triiooman** · 09-16-2010, 06:08 AM

I'd do that if money was good.

Climbed up something high before (not that high though lol)

**Immusaatmonna** · 09-16-2010, 06:12 AM

FFS, imagine getting up in the morning with a bit of a hangover and going to this job

click me

[shocked]

edit forget the hangover, just imagine that job
I´d die daily.

I could feel that in my legs and stomach... Im soo not made for that. Nice video, good find!

**baskentt** · 09-16-2010, 10:45 AM

Probably a good exercise as well, if you have to climb it every day, and it beats sitting in the office all day listening to your annoying co-workers.

Up there, you can just push your co-worker off the tower, even though his safety line will save him, but it will shut him up for few days.

I would hope that you'd be fit enough to consider it "just a day at work", little more worse than climbing that and getting a cramp [rofl]

The video is no longer available.

What next? Burying kittens?

That was pretty cool

It was fun watching the video but I wonder how how I far I could make it up the tower. I'm not particularly good with heights but I don't go crazy either. I think the key for me is to trust myself with the carabiner everytime I got tired.

**Acalsenunse** · 09-16-2010, 03:29 PM

That job. Is not for me. My hands are sweating just by watching that.
I guess you just have to concentrate on the tower and not looking down that much. Also act and not think.

**baskentt** · 09-16-2010, 03:39 PM

I can imagine now. A pissed off co-worker pushing his buddy of the tower as he yells; "THIS.. IS... SPARTA!"

What next? Burying kittens?

Great.... i knew that would hunt me.

**cajonnmu** · 09-16-2010, 04:05 PM

Well, I lasted to the juction box...

I've been up towers a couple of hundred feet up and not sure if it was terror or just the climb that turned my legs to rubber - but after being up their for a few minutes I'd be fine for working. Same with outside buildings - even 20 feet makes me nervous at first.
NO WAY I'd even think about freeclimbing, though!

**Svatudjw** · 09-16-2010, 04:05 PM

I'm lost for words. How the flaming hell do they even build things like that?

Couldn't they just use a chopper or something and fly them to top and lower them on a harness, seems like a much safer alternative.

**gennickO** · 09-16-2010, 04:13 PM

Great.... i knew that would hunt me.

I'm a little disjointed myself, but for that reason I tend not to think out loud.

Jesus. ****ing. Christ. I'd buy my own parachute. I don't particularly like heights, but I really don't like the feeling of falling. I used to have nightmares about falling from the sky and... "landing" right as I woke up. *shivers

**Hodstcopter** · 09-16-2010, 11:43 PM

Heights don't really bother me, but the factor of not being clipped or cabled to anything and trusting my grip constantly would bug me too much to do that job. I was thinking that the mentality of someone doing that job might be that you can die just the same falling off of a 3-story building, but that would be a long and intense fall off of a tower like that lol.

Those guys should wear those suits that have the fabric webbing between limbs so at least they can fly around in different directions and have some fun as they plummet towards death. Wonder what the fatality rate is for that job...
