1768 Foot Transmitter Tower Climbing Video

[calientra]

Found via Twitter on a friend's tweet.

OMG, this has got to be the freakiest and scariest video I've ever watched. I have a fear of heights like you wouldn't believe. I was sitting in my truck while watching this, and yet, I was hanging on for dear life. There is NO FUCKING WAY IN HEAVEN OR HELL you would EVER get me to climb a tower like this.

WARNING, NOT for the squeamish at all.

EDIT: YouTube pulled the video, but it's still available at the following URL:

I didn't get to see the video before it was pulled, But I used to climb towers for work. The tallest I ever did was 500 feet. I loved to view! One of the hardest parts of the job for me was learning how to pace yourself on the way up, and the way down.
Today there is no way I could do it without getting some serious work outs first!
