Don't watch this if you have a fear of heights.

No wonder the song 'Stairway to Heaven' is so long ... it takes sp long to get to the top of the tower.

Whatever this bloke is getting paid ... triple it !! It is not enough !!

I hope 'down' is via parachute ... it would be a lot safer than the free climbing !!

Holy cow... I didn't have a fear of heights until I watched that!

I can't believe they don't use safety harness for most of that climb.

What was the point of the climb? Do they just change the lightbulb and come down?

It just kept going and going though, everytime I thought they were at the top they climbed another ladder. Thats insane.

Going down would be the bit that would worry me though. I love climbing things but once I have to get back down to ground level I lose all confidence and it takes me twice as long.

The camera on someone else's head was what caused most of the disorientation for me -- if it was my own head and my own inner ear balance I was relying on, it would actually be a pretty cool job.

No fear of heights, but I do wonder about the lack of safety harness -- surely it wouldn't be allowed to happen in Australia due to our stricter OH&S laws.

I also suffer with vertigo at stages. Heights never worried me (when i was at the empire state building years ago), but have only had vertigo issues over the last 2 years.

Like most here, how the hell does he get down and i would love to know how many times a year he had to do that and for what pay.

I can't understand ppl who jump out of a perfectly good aeroplane, whoever anyone who volunteers for that job derserves a parachute. and no Pay packet would be worth enough

Through the whole video I was thinking, ''Please dont fall, please dont fall!''
