my palms are sweating watching that one.

ottopottomouse · 09-20-2010, 04:56 AM

I watched this last week and even though it is just on the computer screen I still get that nasty feeling of being about to fall off. No way I could ever do that.

Emil · 09-20-2010, 04:59 AM

Thats very cool. I wonder how they build such high towers..

potter · 09-20-2010, 05:01 AM

meh, that's only scary if you're afraid of heights.

Lykos · 09-20-2010, 05:02 AM

Jesus fucking shit....damn

fatfoo · 09-20-2010, 05:13 AM

They try to construct towers and buildings perfectly. However, it's not always a perfect structure. Tower of Pisa is leaning to one side, but it does not fall.

Grapesoda · 09-20-2010, 06:29 AM

that's not really a big deal at all... the eye can't read depth after 50 feet. mostly just hard work... that's a long climb dragging a lot of tools etc... and the guy is tied off, basically he can't fall off unless he really tries.

Cyber Fucker · 09-20-2010, 06:30 AM

ilnjscb · 09-20-2010, 07:09 AM

What sort of tool makes their employees "free climb" because it is faster? If it was the federal government they'd have a 15 person safety officer team, two helicopters, and three climbers for "redundant efficiency"

Seems he only latched on during small breaks. The rest of the time he was free climbing.

Babaganoosh · 09-20-2010, 08:48 AM

I used to do tower work in my younger days. This guy is free climbing which is against every regulation in the US. OSHA would impose massive fines against your employer if you get caught doing that here. This guy clips off to rest, that's it. He's just begging to die.

We were required to have at least 3 points of contact with the tower at ALL times. We had to wear a climbing belt (like a lineman's belt) and a harness with a rope/carabiner attached to the back.

To climb we reached up as far as we could with the rope, clipped it to the tower, climb a few feet, belt off, move the carabiner up as high as we could again, release the belt, climb a few feet and so on. It was quite literally impossible for us to fall if we were following safety procedures (and if we didn't we'd get fired on the spot).

Some towers do have a built-in cable for a sliding safety device which replaces the lineman's belt but you're still required to use the harness with the rope.

adult-help · 09-20-2010, 09:02 AM

daaaaaaaamn,i was expecting he falls off at some point of the video but thank god he didn't..wouldn't do this for all the money in the world..

Angry Jew Cat - Banned for Life · 09-20-2010, 11:03 AM

I got a few friends who do this. I almost went myself to go do it too. Then they showed me videos they had taken from the top of a tower in a rain storm, with the tower whipping around like 30 feet in either direction in the wind. That was pretty much the end of it. They don't make any more than your average construction laborer.

You gotta have some balls to climb that thing with no safety harness most of the way.

What a load of bullshit! Try telling my eyes they can't see past 50 feet when I'm up high! Biggest load of crap I heard on here for a while.

2MuchMark · 09-20-2010, 01:53 PM

Not Scary.

I've never been afraid of heights at all and in fact get a real adreneline rush from them. If I was to climb that tower I would go all the way to the top and just hang out there all day long admiring the view. When I play GRand Theft Autio I take Helicopter to the highest building and hang over the edge (and sometimes jump).

I luuuuvvvv heights.

My 2 brothers and sister however have an insane phobia of heights - even 1 or 2 steps up on a ladder freaks them out. Wierd.

Semi-Retired-Dave · 09-20-2010, 02:05 PM

That's insane, all that work and my AT&T still sucks.
Great video. They should make it a law to keep the safety harness on.

Riffhard · 09-20-2010, 02:35 PM

Couldn't they just build a pulley system that allows the workers to pull themselves up? It'd be safer and probably faster and more efficient.

no he's always tied off and just moves the hook when the line gets to tight... you can see him do it when you watch the vid.

Way too insane for me.

I would want at least 1000.00 per hour for that.

I didn't say your eyes wouldn't see, I said your eyes can 'see' depth about 50'... things just look smaller but no more frightning... and besides a fall off a 6' ladder will kill you anyway most likely. I know this from actual experience as a structural iron worker.

gmr324 · 09-20-2010, 02:47 PM

he was free climbing and would clip on at some points... he was very vulnerable to death.

death from a 6 foot ladder? Youve got to be shitting me... sure if they fell on their neck. I wouldnt think if 100 people fell off a 6 foot ladder that more than 10 would die of some freak landing.

I have jumped off 20 foot buildings and been fine.

I understand what youre saying about depth and the professional being in control of his job... but its still super fuckin freaky and I bet the big monies you wouldnt be jumping up there to help him.

I loved climbing to the top of the giant mast on my father's boat(one of those big deep sea fishing boats) when I was a young kid... to me that was way high up there. Up with the birds and looking on mountains. Even though you weren that high it seemed like it.

I dont think id give this one a shot ever. Just the look of the lanscape below is enough to shit a miata!

I don't think so, he is latching it back on his belt and only latches it when he takes breaks.
That is why they mentioned that it's legal to free climb.

Semi-Retired-Dave · 09-20-2010, 09:01 PM

Good thing I didn't weld those steps/handles. They would have came off.
