I think everyone is afraid of heights to a certain degree. Maybe not deathly afraid, but if you dont have a healthy respect for gravity you must have some screws loose.
Yeah, didn't look like he had a safety rope or harness, I actually had an impulse to grab my desk while watching lol, and I've flown gliders and stuff so I'm not that bad with heights. Hate ladders tho.

That was pretty nuts. I didn't like that video at all. How much would a guy who does that insane job get paid?? Just thinking about it after watching it gives me the shivers. I don't like heights at all.
I've been more then nervous on a 20 foot ladder before let alone a giant antenna free hand 1768 feet up then having to stand on top of the stupid thing. This man better be getting paid well.

I was called by a company asking if I was interested in doing something like this (installing solar something windows for high rise buildings) and they were offering something like $120k for working 3 days a week. They asked because I do a lot of alpine climbing and mountaineering and some big wall climbing, so I was pretty comfortable with exposure and handling ropes and building anchors. I would have taken it, but I couldn't get a work visa for it.
