Does anyone know how these things are built/assembled?
 
Also, if you're afraid if heights, watch at your own risk. This will definitely make your asshole pucker and your hands sweaty.

I'm not afraid of heights but my butt would be puckered tighter than a sheet of 1" steel up there.

Wonder what those guys get paid? I couldn't do it.

Oh shit, I forgot the 9/16 wrench. Gotta go back down.

I used to climb towers, but nothing over 200'. My buddy would safety himself on the outside of the towers, lean back and take a nap on our lunch breaks. He'd be swaying in the wind and snoring.

All he probably was doing was changing a light bulb

Don't know if video showed that or not

I feel a lot better watching these videos now knowing that they have parachutes.

Oh, rally? I didn't know that. That also makes me feel better, but still...

What do you do if you have to take a leak?

Check the direction of the wind.

I was wondering that, hopefully a wingsuit also. Would have not idea how you climb down with the safety clips.

I've worked off stages and repelled.

I'd be more scared from 60 feet.

A fall from 1700 is just a fun ride a painless smack.

Don't have to worry about driving a wheelchair with your mouth.

My Dad used to do that for a living - he worked on an FMP (field maintainance party) for the FAA. Climbed their radio and microwave towers, kept 'em up and working. I didn't permanently inherit his abilities. When I was young I liked climbing stuff like this, but I developed vertigo in my 50's and that was the end of that.

Climbing those towers kept Pop 'strong like bull'. It never paid to arm wrestle him or his co-workers.
