Just watched this on YT, If you don't like heights then Don't watch this, I'm not to bad with heights but this made me feel sick!



Don't say I didn't warn you!

Frendor.

Edit. Watch this full screen :-)

Hi Frendor

Have you got another link for this?

When you click play it gives the error:

"This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by TheOnLineEngineer.org"

I thought working in a Power station at 200 feet with gratings allowing you to see all the way to the basement was bad enough - sod that!

haha no danger! I thought he had finished climbing halfway through the vid... but noooo he keeps going!
I think you have to be mentally insane to do that for a living! He needs to go back down the way they came too! Wouldn't catch me doing that.
The funniest thing about the whole thing is although they have no safety harness they are still wearing safety helmets! For what purpose? To keep their heads warm? Cause surely from that height, helmets have no effect if you fall!!!

I think the reason for the hard hat is one of the more common reasons for a steeplejack getting into trouble is banging your head and becoming disoriented - at least that's what the guys who were repairing the chimney stacks on the station I was working on told me. It was this station BTW: http://s0.geograph.org.uk/photos/04/75/047558_4661fb8f.jpg

Well, when the call comes I (and others) do run and change into a different outfit and people are usually pleased to see us (unless it's Guy Fawkes night).....




no tights or capes involved though!
