THAT SHIT IS CRAZY!



Wireless Estimator says that technicians who construct and climb towers had the most dangerous profession across industries last year, at least if you're looking at the death rate per 100,000 employees.

Eighteen workers died in 2006 from falling from a communications tower in a Tower Climber Deaths profession that has approximately 9,800 employees that work on elevated structures primarily for the cellular and broadcast industries - although broadband activity is increasing throughout the country and wireless internet service providers' installations are adding to the current busy workload.

Last year, ISP Planet explored how much WISPs pay for such technicians (and their insurance). Climbers often charge $1,500 or more a day plus additional insurance fees; one climber notes that he bills out at $295.00 per hour.

I'm lightweight scared of heights but not really...

Worked for a painting company for almost a year and we did quite a few jobs in Frisco, being on a side of a building it's cool. But once you look down, that's when it gets scary...

I work on elevators so heights don't bother me. It's really common though, you really don't know until you're put in that situation. We did have a guy come out on his first day of a job, we took him to the top of a 40+ story building and got on top of the elevator, he took one look down, said later to everyone and we never seen him again. We do have others that are semi scared and will wear safety harnesses every time and get pale and sweaty, but it's kind of a macho thing for most of us, not wanting to be the one to put one on.
