I enjoyed the work - you can't imagine the view from 1800' up a TV
tower. But I'm glad I'm not doing it any more.


I doubt I could cope with that much risk of vertigo (occasionally I sufer the
real, medical thing, just waking up in the morning, but it's still rare enouh
that I prefer not to know more about why). I did see a video once though, I
saved it somewhere. Extremely interesting, as well as having a chance to see
so much of the climb in detail. I suspect you or someone here might even know
who made it.


It was not I, and almost assuredly no on I know. The ones I knew back
then got out of the business - one way or the other.

I did see a video about a couple of guys free climbing an television
antenna about 2K feet in the air. I lost count how many safety
practices they violated. If OSHA had seen them doing that, they would
have been grounded big time. The fines would have probably put the
company out of business.
