I almost had a panic attack just watching that thing. Those guys have balls of steel.

I can barely go up a 10 foot ladder. Thanks for that, now I have to change shirts and socks. Got a lil clammy watching that!

Just doing my good duty for the day
I agree though, just watching that made my palms sweat! They would have to pay me well over 100 million to do that, but the problem is, that would probably be the cost just to get me down. They'd have to cut my arms off just to get me to let go of that antenna.

All I kept thinking was, "How effing windy must it be up there??!" As if they don't have enough other $hit to worry about a quarter mile in the air climbing up on 1 inch diameter metal prongs. I know this: If I had to climb up there every time the light bulb burned out, I'd get GE on the phone like pronto and tell them to create a 50 year bulb.

The best part is the when the guy narrating says, at some 1700+ feet in the air, that "seeing storm clouds he checks the lightning conditions cause if a storm rolls in there's no quick way down." Ummmmm, yeah actually there is, that's the problem!!!
