No one could pay me enough, to ever climb that.

[karnage]

no safety harness :| omg

[Gleeso]

Not a big fan of heights, couldnt even get a few minutes in. That shit made me nauseous just watching it.

[winstor]

They have safety lines, but choose not to use them 'much' as it slows them down.

Fuck that.

[Nic_A31]

The closer to the end of the video it gets, the harder it is to watch.
At the very tip of the tower, just standing on top, with just that one pole to hold onto......how many times would you have to do that shit before you became confident ?

FUCK THAT!

[Phyber]

As a comment pointed out, imagine the swaying at the top @_@

Bet they make some bucks though.

[winstor]

Read somewhere they get paid US$75k-100k a year

[RICEY]

Fuck
That.

[Sully]

Be alright if you could base jump off the mother fucker to get back down again. Gets your adrenaline going just watching the last part.

Even so it goes in the great big fuck that for a job basket

[Ryan1080]

Yikes!

I'd need to wear a nappy going up there I think... and perhaps a parachute too. These guys got balls of steel I reckon.

[scj91]

I'd do it if i had a parachute... best base jump..ever!

[siamak]

i get vertigo almost every time he looks down

[monk_13]

FARK THAT TIMES ELEVENTY BILLION

[shifted]

Fuck that. I hate heights!

[Blueraven]

with parachute = sure....just watch out for thr support stays(cables).

no chute? faaaaaarrrrrk that!

there was one shot where you see the veins in his forearms popping, holding on for dear life naturally...

[evil1]

shit job.

[confuzion]

my god man.. i'm pretty terrible with heights so watching that was fucked. Imagine the wind up that high too, crazy shit..

[Friar]

im not to bothered with heights but no way would i do that if i got paid big $$$

[lachlanrb20s13]

lol theres no reason why they couldnt run a line from the top of the tower and attach themselves to it with one of those grips that runs freely over rope but then locks up if you fall

[cem1790]

watch closely at 3:43 some guy base jumps off an antenna and flies BETWEEN the cables!

[Phyber]

Oooh ooh....love that one! Be one with the arcs.

[I <3 Judd 0kw]

dont fall carnt!!!!!!!!!!!:(

[SimonR32]

I'm not too bad with heights (I have star jumped off a 60m cliff in the past) but a few times in that video the climber seems way too relaxed and I cringed waiting for him to fall!

[Halle Terry]

FUCK THAT

[Mad_Aussie]

Fuck that for a joke, my hands are sweating after watching that!

[MISS 13B]

I wouldn't even do that for 200K a year. Fuck that!!!
Couldn't watch it past the 3 minute mark.

[shifted]

Couldn't watch it past the 3 minute mark.

You missed out!

[MISS 13B]

Haha I am NOT watching the rest of it.
Felt queasy enough.

[Simon]

fuck that.
a job for gilbert grape for sure.

i had to climb RF towers on drilling boats and a semi-sub a couple of times to mount new gear,
only ~200ft at the top but still wasnt a great feeling, worse on the ship in 4m swells.
the $1450/day made it somewhat better though.

[DrKarl]

OMG. O_O

You'd want to be happy with the welds on that second ladder.

[shifted]

the $1450/day made it somewhat better though.

Job application please!

[Simon]

^ after apprentices.
pm me if keen

[freefly]

what I would give to be on the top of that thing...

[AndrZeJ]

[mazgem]
