Now this is just plain NUTS!!!!

ONLY 60 FEET MORE TO THE TOP HE SAYS!!!!! That is freakin nuts, no way in hell someone could pay me enough money in order to do that... maybe climb as far as the inside climbing but once your climbing outside that's it!!!
 
I no fear of heights.

I have a huge fear of falling.

I'll leave this job for someone else.

Lol, when the guy mentioned about if there was a storm coming there's no fast way down... why hell yes there is... bring a parachute!
 
Yow...... Just watching the video the strength drained out of my hands and my palms were sweating. I wouldn't be able to hold onto those rungs. And you just KNOW that the tower had to be swaying too.....

Sorry, I don't trust ANYTHING made by man enough to put myself in that sort of a predicament...

I wonder how much that job has to pay in order to get someone to do it?

LOL I think I would have a panic attack at the free climbing part!!
I mean what if one of the rungs snaped off.

Bye....

Morbid I know but I couldn't help but wonder how many people have fallen. And OSHA allows free climbing? I am not suppose to point an air hose at myself but they can free climb that high. I guess the only difference is that I could live to sue if I get hurt but there is no way that guy is living to sue.

Good question! Wouldn't be enough for me.
 
Oh my gosh. That was seriously the scariest thing I had seen in a while. And he was freeclimbing!!! That's insane! I wouldn't climb up there with a rope, let alone freeclimbing! I would certainly bring a parachute.

I'm a rock climber, so I'm used to heights and climbing and everything, but that was insane. They must both be insane, I'm sure of it!
 
After having a partial panic attack as well, I had to stop it! Didn't get very far into it either. Weird how something you are totally not involved in can be so scary.
 
I like heights, a lot, but even that might be too much for me. I mean, if your in a plane, thats a lot different, here, your hanging on for your life, and if you slip, it's over for you.

Yeah, but at that height, you'll have plenty of time for your life to flash before your eyes..... I wonder what thoughts you would have in a situation like that? Or would you just fry your brain screaming in terror?

I think I would be thinking "Man, I sure wish I would hurry up and WAKE UP from this one!"

I think you would realize that it wasn't a dream.
