Frightened of heights?.....
« on: 16 September 2010, 18:55:04 »

....well, watch this! (for full queasy-mode; watch in full screen)

Being a private-pilot; heights don`t normally bother me at all.....but for some reason, the part of this climb where he`s on the outside of the antenna, had me feeling most peculiar. :o

Heights have never been an issue for me, considering abseiling off of mountains at 2/2 ::)500 feet onto ledges less than a metre wide, and also doing the hardest climb in the UK unroped (now where is that then?) ::)

Wow... that's a fair height  :D .

The clip was a snap-shot of time that they spent to get to the top, wonder how long it took them in total ?!.

Hate to think what language they would use if the one tool they needed had been left in the van at the bottom  ::)  ;D .

Looks the kind of job that they may get paid well for doing due to the danger of working on something like that ?.

A 30ft drop will probably kill you but I bet you would die of shock before you hit the ground from that sort of height. I would of course die of shock once I stepped out of the lift  ;D

I'm no good with heights - this video had me in awe and made me feel ill - I wouldn't climb that tower for £1bn  :o
