1768 foot tower from the climbers viewpoint... xxxhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txdv_oNq81I link dead, see below post
That video makes me feel incredibly nervous just watching it! Just climbing my 40' tower gives me the heebe jeebes.
When those guys in the video get towards the top and climb those little posts that stick out that just blows my mind. I know they have safety belts but man if one of those snapped they'd be swinging and possibly doomed.
Also I know how with tower work there are always moments when you aren't clipped on so that you can step over stuff. Any one of those moments could be lethal if something breaks or you loose grip.
Now I remember why I no longer work on towers unless I have to
