Talk about nuts....and then they come down the same way....I would rather just B.A.S.E. jump off the top!! How would you like to be in this pre-job safety meeting...
I had a young man who worked for me in the service named Tomasik, whose family as well as him worked on building topped towers in Chicago. The pay is astronomical as is the danger IMHO. He can have it.
Takes a weak mind to tempt fate continuously--play Russian roulette and the round is coming up some time. Bud was a tree surgeon for 20 yrs but cut his safety and work rope with the same bad move. He hobbles around on the ground now--slowly. Things happen. At those heights I believe I would work with a chute. Have rock climbed w/o ropes and walked high beams--but I was much younger and much more foolish.
