| Tower climbing One of the things that make the job dangerous besides
the sudden stop when you fall, is the lack of depth at those
heights. Many people have no problem climbing up, it's
when they look down the problems start.
Looking at that picture, you get a sense of the height,
but it's not like being up there.
That's something I can't even imagine. Plus you have the
wind shaking the tower. If you look at the one guy's hair
you can tell it's windy. It must be either late summer or
early fall when that picture was taken.
Would be even more interesting to see video. |

Columbus, OH | Looking up at moving clouds can make you dizzy. You feel as if the clouds are stationary and you (and the tower) are moving. Looking down doesn't really bother climbers.
Most accidents are caused by fatigue and carelessness. Your hands and arms need lots of rest stops. |
