I cant believe that they are willing to free climb those things just to save some time. Pure crazy.

i've watched this video a few times now and everytime I see it I get butterflies...absolutely scarey $hit!

anyone know a persons average salary that does something like that?

also, i think i might wear a parachute by choice. for one, if you fall you may have a chance of surviving. for two, if you enjoy a good thrill and you want to save some time by not climbing all the way down, you can fly down instead.

^It should be right around $40,000,000 a year.

Are you sure? To me, 250k wouldn't be worth it. I thought this was a pretty specialized job that not many people did. I'm thinking a good deal more than 40K...

He said 40M not 40k.

How the hell do they build and finish the top of the tower? Helicopter?

I saw this the other day. No way in hell

 

[DaBigBone]

+1 on the parachute idea

That is ****in awesome.

I don't know what that guy looks like, how big he is, how tough he is, or what his personality is like, but I'm pretty sure he defines the word "badass".

Can you imagine how windy it probably is up there on top of the fact that you're holding onto almost nothing?

They did a show on it on "World's Toughest Fixes" or whatever that show is. I'll just say it has nothing to do with helicopters.

I don't think I could do that... That is freakin HIGH!

 

[bb97gt]

Thats pretty freaking cool
