    As a former AM/FM tower climber/service tech, the highest for me was 405 feet in the USA state of Idaho. While up there, the full size ford f-250 looked like a spec of color on the ground and the wind is always blowing a bit when ya get up around 80 feet and higher even if it’s not at ground level.
    I can feel the butterflies in my stomach as this guy was climbing and THEN when he looked up that last orange stretch with merely side pegs (side pegs!! ) at elevation ABOVE the clouds at 1900 feet!! Oh, hell no. I honestly don’t know if I could have committed because COMING BACK DOWN is WAY more difficult getting your footing on those pegs…way more difficult!
    If it took him 3 hours to climb this, it took 4 coming back down I guarantee it !
    Horrendous!

    I've plumbed those antennas before. We used to loosen the bolts at the bottom of antenna and have a guy (me once) climb to the top and rock it back and forth while the guys below slid stainless steel shims in depending on the direction it needed to go. This was about 20 years ago so I'm not sure if they're still doing it the same way. Had to climb them at night sometimes too for maintenance work. I worked for Doty Moore and Seacom Erectors back in the late 90's and early 2000's so if any of you guys are in the chat let me know.

      If you have ears to hear, hear and understand you are probably one of GODS lost sheep that needs to be found there is this hole in your heart and you tried many times and many things and many ways to fill it and still are but it’s not working and it keeps getting bigger and bigger you would be around multiple people and still feel lonely and work so hard to take those bad thoughts away etc but let me tell you JESUS is the one who can fill that whole in your heart JESUS is that missing piece you’ve been looking for, that peace that’s never ending that true love and joy and happiness it’s in JESUS not of this world but of the kingdom of heaven and if you want to accept him in your heart all you have to do is believe in the gospel A-admit that you’re a sinner and that you need forgiveness, B-Believe that JESUS CHRIST died for your sins and rose again, and C-Confess your faith in JESUS CHRIST and his lordship over your life and you will be saved and this amazing feeling is not a drug it won’t last a couple hours but forever eternally bc it is not of this world but of GOD who sits on the throne of heaven forever and ever HALLELUJAH

    As a former tower climber I can tell you the last stretch of his climb was extremely dangerous. I could be getting paid 100 dollars an hour and I still wouldn’t put my safety lanyard on a step peg. I’ve had to do some questionable and outright dangerous things in the industry but I never worked on a radio tower and this is why
