I'm afraid of heights, and watching this video made me sweat bullets.

two guys climbing a 1700ft cell tower to change the light bulb on top

it's an old video but I tried searching for it on the forum and couldn't find any matches. So sorry if it's a repost, please delete it.

That seriously made my palms sweat watching that. What is so insane is they are not even strapped in half the time. One false move and they would have been dead. Insane!

One of my friends owns a tower company. He maintains the KVLY TV tower in North Dakota, climbing 2063 feet at night when it is powered down. Though he is filthy rich, he still climbs towers every day. Here he is with Mike Rowe, who did a "Dirty Jobs" episode with Kevin.
