@kennyraymon I have to be honest's that it true. "Easy to say, hard to do"

I dont know about you but at first I didnt think he even had his safety hooked up before he even went over? I know I make sure that I do before I make my first jump LOL!!!

[Cheesebeavis]

when i do this i usually tie off while going over the parepet and wearing the bosun chair. puttin the bosun chair over the edge first and then climbing into it...stupid. and hes lucky OSHA dosent fine him for not tieing off while that close to the edge. and that was cool burnin rope on the way down.

[emptyheady]

hehe, I am already scared, cleaning windows at first floor lol >.>

[SpeedVideoz]

easy just dont be scared

[kennyraymon]

To be honest, window cleaners don't make alot of money. Atleast in the city I am from, it is a very shady industry. Alot of them are drug addicts and only do it beacuse nobody will hire them to do anything else. If you want to get into high angle work, there are alot of trades that need to be up high too. The easyest one is probably painting. I'm self employed and I usually make around $120/h , but for an employee you can expect $20-35. If you want to know more go to my prof and leave a msg
