Stairway to Heaven
I did a search on tower climbing fatalities and came up with that is the most dangerous job in America. Back in 07 they were making 1500 per day plus insurance and another guuy charged 295 PH. Wow but not for me, I would **** my pants going up in the elevator knowing what was in store. We have asphalt silos where I work about 200 ft. I went up one once and that scared me but coming down I used both side rails and that was enough for me. Heights scare the ---- out of me. On another note, our house burnt when I was 16 and there was not much hestitation to jump from the second story window.

Fire is a hell of a motivator, ain't it?
Highest pole I ever climbed was 40'. I have climbed tower structures that were about 60'. Always envied those that had to change lights on transmitter towers 200+ feet up.
Don't look down.

Thanks 4 the Super Thread + the infor on Pay..
WoW $295 an hour
I'd do `it & be able to get a new ZR`1
I watched a program on Action `Sports & guys climbing
mountains higher, and doing it 4 nothing but the pump/challenge/rush.
I think it would be a insane `job, but also `fun
4 the $'s : )
I'm sure like everything, that you would get use to `it.
I think driving on the highways/interstate is more
dangerous 4-Real Sure : )

Some sooner then others 4-Sure... So we all must extract the most from our lives, and `journey &
do while we can : )
================================================== ============
How many $'s would you want to get to climb to the top of the posted Tower ?
Post the dollar amount that you would climb it for ? ?
It's surprising what humans are capable of when they are in a position to survive or not ?

I wouldn't risk my life for $295 /h or $1500! That's way to low. For me to attempt a stunt like that even once I'd want at least $50 grand. And if I survived it once I'd probably walk away. But it could be addicting too...
LOL `Brent,
but it's a Natural `High
~*I'd try a test climb, just 2 C `if I could
p.s. love your `sig 4-Sure

I think I'd choose to kick some *** in the Middle East. If I die doing either, I'd rather have more meaning behind it. A nobler cause - in theory at least. If the fate of the universe was stake for me to get up that tower I would
Hi `Brent, that was very Profound
...Very deep thoughts 4 so early in a new `day WoW lol
What do you `Want it 2 `be ? ? I'm search'in : )
Maybe `if I climb to the top of the tower, the answer will be there ?
or `not ?, but I will not know until I try : ) Typing words is E.Z., acting them
`out takes more then just the words I type on2 a screen...
I'd be scared 4 - Sure, but I really think I would `try ?
