A long time ago when I was stationed in Belgium....I had to maintain a 1000' + radio tower that shot over to the cliffs of Dover.

Every 4 months we had a Belgian contractor come replace the obstruction lights up top....the guy that did it was missing the middle two fingers on one hand....but he zipped right up that tower, while I sat in my truck thinkin' "no way I'm gettin' up there".

No friggen way, I don't even like tall elevator rides. We got booked into the 18th floor at the Dallas Hyatt Regency year before last on vacation and I di not like the glass elevator ride down to the lobby through the atrium.
