Do you visit Abovetopsecret.com? Someone posted this video a few days ago over there. Anyways, very insane job nonetheless. The video will induce vertigo. Hope the guys in the video don't have the ability to sneeze.

Most towers I worked on were 500 or less. We rarely free climbed but got to do a lot of repelling and what not. When we were done with the tower we would send a rope over a boom tie it to the the truck hitch the repel down the free line.
If youwatn to now the dangers of the job check out Wireless estimator
Go to Safety, Fatalaties. You will also see Free Climbing is illegal on an OSHA standpoint.

This could be an interesting way to verify people's intentions about suicide and whether or not they still cling to life. If you climb all the way to the top and STILL want to jump, you're pretty damn sincere -- otherwise feel free to climb down and tell Mommy you're sorry.
you dont wanna jump from that high up. theres too much time from jumping to hitting for you to realize how fucking STUPID that idea was.

Yeah, but if you're going to fall off a cliff, you might as well attempt to fly....as the saying goes.
