Noooo - my brother in law did this for a while. Not for me!

Hiya : )

I'm gonna send you up there. Better have your breeks on up there!

It's a guy climbing a 1700 ft transmission tower with the camera on his helmet. I still haven't been able to watch the whole thing - makes me queasy.

IPad does not do Flash .. or so I thought (like ipod) : )

[JonnyBoy12]

Is the pay for this high as well?

[mccfluff]

i don;t mind heights, hitting the ground scares me though

[karenmac60]

I think I'd need a few pairs spare Al ;)

[sherrardk]

Oh no, don't trust high, man-made things - couldn't walk across one of those glass floors either.

Boxy, how long did he do it?

[AlBags]

I was on a roof in London .. in Bow .. new block and penthouse.
No edges at the time and pretty scary .. that was only 450ft odd.
I was talking to the tower crane driver .. he was swaying about .. like 10 feet movement.

just to replace a bulb??!! I hope they get well paid for that

[JonnyBoy12]

Is that just to replace a light bulb? Has anyone got any light bulb jokes about this then?

No problem ...

I can't get the link to open, what is it?

[NazNomad]

A climber's view going up a 1,768ft transmission tower.

Honestly, the p.o.v. (helmet-cam) makes it look a lot worse than it is.

[Poor-Alfie]

I'd do that on a pogo stick.
