It got me how he climbed without his fall arrester & only clipped it when he had a break.
I don't mind heights, but you wouldn't get me up there.

Don't do utube, but if thats the vid of the transmitter, then respect.  I used to climb telegraph poles, and some of the bigger ones of those used to leave me 'fully clenched'

My father when working on tall building when in the building trade used too tell me that walking across a 6inch plank of wood 100ft up was no different than walking over a 6inch plank of wood on the floor.

I suppose he was right but by god i used too cack myself watching him. ;D

Holy mother of mary........ :o

Don't have a problem with the height (I used to install cellular tx towers for a living) but really don't like how he only "clips on" to sticking out rungs, and stops without using carabiners or fall arrest equipment!!

Man has death wish!! :D
