This one isn't funny, but worth pondering... it's a video that will create vertigo. I've done some urban climbing (we did the scotia tower downtown vancouver like this, except we were half liquored up) but this is higher than I can imagine climbing without a harness
The six-minute film, shot using a helmet camera, follows the progress of two engineers as they scale a 1,768ft pylon
In case anyone is in doubt about the height to which the workers climb, the top of the antenna shown in the film is higher than Chicago's Willis Tower (formerly the Sears Tower), the tallest skyscraper in the US.
