We occasionally had to change the light bulb on the top of a 90 foot microwave radio antenna tower in Vietnam, and I thought I was high then! (well, height-wise).

ive seen that a few times, not to mention they play it for us at virtually ever OSHA class and continuing education... first one ive seen with a narative tho.
My boss climbs towers here and there not that high but he says a fall from 50 feet or 1500 feet... the outcome is the same!

True, but from 1500 feet you have more time to think about the sudden stop at the bottom.

Heights are one of my few uncomfortable areas and that one took the cake.
From the first Original to the last x82 Series... you can't beat an IH Cub Cadet!!!
