You know that classic picture of those steel workers sitting on that thin I beam having lunch while building the empire state building ? IMO that was more daring than these guys at 1700 ft and those steel workers did that every damn day !!!

my old employer had a tower building division (that was essentially defunct) but one of the tower guys still worked as a shop guy. A couple of times a year he would fly or drive somewhere, climb a tower as high as 1000ft and replace a light bulb or install anti-bird spikes. He certainly didn't have a parachute.

Obligatory....my 'tower' is bigger than that!
As much as having to piss might suck....a mad case of the shits would be far worse. I mean it's not like you could drop your pants and let go....at that height you could kill someone below.
