Don't like heights ... look away now !

Good grief lol, you'd have thought they'd have designed some sort of guide rail and safety rope constantly attached to the structure, or lowered someone from a winch in a helicopter to fix that!

What a pain in the arse if you get to the top and forgot a tool!
 
That literally turned my stomach. :o Could you imagine though?

*brr brr, brr* Hello?

YEAH, BOSS IT'S ANDY. BLOODY WINDY UP HERE, I LOST THE JOBSHEET. WHAT NEEDS DOING?

The top spire's loose mate...

:-\
 
"getting to your workplace can be a chore, especially if your workplace is 1700ft straight up"

erm, it's not like it's his office at the top is it? they only go up when it breaks don't they? couple of times a year? but yea, huuuuge balls to do that.

i noticed that :p , i bet procrastination in his "office" is rather low...
 
My hands are sweating. At the top, just before he clips himself on, he's just standing on the beacon without even holding on :eek:

That's the bit that got me, he just rests his head a little whilst looking for the clip... Only time id be a little more urgent about my job...

And for a discworld quote "Its not heights that scare me, its the falling that terrifies me" :D
 
Could anyone here do that for £1million? I still couldn't. That free climbing nearer the top where there's no security is even more amazing.

No problem. I'd do it for around £5k no worries. Seems easier to me than climbing a mountain/rock climbing. (havent done that though!)

I mean for about 3/4 of it certainly coz the ladder is on the inside. When he goes outside he secures himself each time he moves up so if he does slip and fall no probs. Also because his partner is secured as well.

Only problem i would have is looking down. Vertigo. But once you get over that nps :)
