I'd be okay climbing the ladder inside the scaffolding bit due to security from falling, but I'd never ever climb onto that single pole at the very top, I'd just be paralized with fear and cling onto that pole :/ These guys have the nerve, they deserve big money!
1700 FEET IS NO DIFFERENCE THAN 30 FEET OFF THE GROUND --- YOULL STILL DIE IF YOU FALL --- EITHER WAY --- I CLIMB STRATOVOLCANOS FOR KICKS --- AND TOWERS FOR WORK --- CANT BEAT THE RARIFIED AIR AT ---- HIGH ALTITUDES
TRANSMISSION TOWER? ARE YOU HIGH NARRATOR? AND IM AN APP.LINEMAN AND BUILD CELL SITES ALL DAY EVERYDAY. USUALLY ONLY 220 FT UP IN THE AIR, BUT SOMETIME WE DO 400 FT. TOWERS. IM ONLY 19 AND I THINK I HAVE MORE BRAINS THAN THESE GUY.NO SAFETY ?THATS A DEATHWISH. ID RATHER TAKE MY TIME RATHER THAN MY OWN LIFE. SCABS!!!!!
It's not a "Guided" Tower. It is a guyed tower. I find it interesting that the voice says OSHA allows free climbing in situations like this. Sure they do, until you or your boss gets caught, or someone is injured or dies. I've climbed towers for over 40 years, and would never do this without safety gear attached.
After I finished watching this video I realised that I have couple of sweat drops streaming down my palms. I think if I was there that wouldnt be the sweat but my shit streaming down my pants.
Holy shit, and they're wearing short sleeve shirts, can you imagine how cold it is for them that high up? It would be so cold it's probably painful to hang on to the bars.
"Hey guys, we just spent several hundred thousand dollars making this extremely tall transmission tower, It'll need maintenance, should we add stairs?"
@FR0DO5 was just going by how osha does us in the construction trades,starting at 6' 100%. i can see where that would be a problem with what those guys are doing.
@1tamtom no I understand, I'm familiar with the restrictions but in the video they sounded like there was some exception in this case. Good luck with your job
i think they said in another copy of this video that they couldnt carry parachutes because it would make them lose balance or that it would be too heavy to carry on way up i think thats wat they said
Im a submariner, I can go down deep in the ocean no problems, but can hardly go up a 20' extension ladder. If I did go up that high on a tower like that it wouldn't be without a parachute
that is crazy
