    Default Shoot me because I'm not doing this!


    Here's a video of a couple of guys climbing up a 1768 ft. tower. There's not enough money in the world to get me to do this.

    I am sure my heart would have stopped the first rung I grabbed.

    I suppose if they need to take a whizz up there, they just let fly and it evaporates before it could hit the ground. As for the other need...?

    If yer chikken... jus' say yer chikken!:p

    You get used to the heights, but it helps if you work from the ground up slowly.

    I used to do elevator shaft cores (formed concrete) and have had more than one person tell me they couldn't get in the "hole" on the forms. It did used to get a little tingley sometimes when the bottom of the elevator shaft looked to be the size of a postage stamp.
