I wonder if he bought that Carabiner at Walmart? I have one JUST LIKE IT that I got for a few bucks.

Seriously though, this video is pretty nuts. I've seen it a few times and I'm not sure if the camera can truly interpret how scary this would be. I've been on some big ladders back when I was doing commercial painting and that was scary enough but nothing compared to this guy, climbing nearly 200 feet ON TOP OF a 1600 ft +/- elevator...

I'm surprised there isn't some kind of zip line permanently attached... or at least a tool box permanently mounted at the top of the tower.

That's nothing, I do that whenever I feel like getting off the computer.
