I'd do it. Those guy's make some great money when they go that high.

[Yammer Dan]

I have told the Warden I'd like to try that. I ran up & down telephone poles for bout 20 yrs but that looks a little different!!

[RandyR]

My dad was a broadcast engineer. He worked on towers a lot. I went up on one much shorter than the one in the video with him once. I don't think I'd care to do it for a living.

[CaptainJoe]

Not me... If I want to get that high I'll just go to the local airport and rent a cessna...

[Wolf]

Nope, not ever!

[Venturous Randy]

I guess I am a wuss as I had to quit watching it!

[SMSgt]

I'd do it.............. if I were 40 years younger. I'm a lot older and a lot wiser now and I realize that money isn't all that important.

Me too! I'm terrified of heights. When they got to the point where he was free-climbing the last few feet I had to stop watching.

[dray]

I would had done it but sence there already up there they dont need me

 

so ill stay home and wait on the Pizza delivery Girl

[SC89Venture]

Like I heard a man once say, "I aint skeered of heights, but I am skeered of depth's" lol.

Neat video, no way I could do it. Can you imagine trying to come down?

[Freebird]

I've done it many times. Only to about 700 ft. but there was no elevator, it was climbing up a straight ladder all the way to the top. It never bothered me. The physical part of it would probably kill me now though.

[kenw]

No thanks, I'm retired from ATT and loving it!

[wes0778]

Can you imagine trying to come down?

 

I'm surprised they don't take parachutes up and just jump to get down.

[Aimhigh]

Not enough $$$ has been, or ever will be, printed for me to climb that thing!

[ctraylor]

I couldn't even watch it much less climb it.

[TDunc]

In my younger days I used to climb up to 100ft towers for my fellow hams.

 

Now, much over my 6'3" frame and my knees get a little wiggly! I think back how many times I did some stupid stuff while on the towers.

 

BTW...HECK NO....I WON'T GO... I sat in amazement watching this the first time a few months ago.

[Panjandrum]

Watched the video, feeling VERY uncomfortable. Read all the responses and my stomach is still churning. No way I would do that on a bet, on a dare or for any sum of money!

 

[pickinfred]

It's a warm 72 degrees while I watch the video, but 3 times while the camera was going from one side to the other of the tower, seemed like I setting on a block of "ICE":snow2:

 

Money is a good thing to have, but not that good.

[Drreb]

Let me put it this way H*** NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't have a death wish!

[Guest Ken8143]

Where is my breath? I want it back.

 

The absolute worst part is the free climb part. I've done enough climbing to appreciate having the safety back up.

 

Bottom line for me - no way!

[sgn]

Do they flip a coin to see who gets to go back and get the forgotten screwdriver !

 

A trip down a guy wire would make a wild "zipline" ride !

[Freebird]

At least he has an elevator up to the last 100 and something feet. Ours was only about 700 feet but no elevator at all. There were several times when I would get to the top, troubleshoot the situation and then have to go back down and then return with the parts that I needed. It was honestly a lot of fun when you got to the top though. You could see for miles around.

[autopilot]

I nearly blew chunks just watching that!
