[QUOTE="O4L, post: 3234530, member: 24429"] I was watching this as it aired live on KFOR. They said the wind at that time was 20 mph. (Measured from wherever they get their info from). I would think that at the height that this happened and with the wind being funneled between the two points of the tower, that the wind could have been blowing at a significantly higher speed there causing all the swaying around of the basket. Whatever the details are that caused this, it was pretty scary watching it at the time not knowing if at any second one of the cables holding the basket might break or become disconnected, or the basket itself coming apart, and seriously injuring or killing the two men.
