YIKES!! I once changed the lights for the airport beacon on top of a water tower here in Edenton and almost soiled my britches. No way I could go that high!

I have a part-time job - thanks anyway.

You think these guys are missing a fear chromosome or just have huge cojones?

Good question....I'm leaning towards them being crazy. I had the chance to ride the elevator, basically a two man platform on a cable, to the 2/3 mark of a 1600'+ TV tower in Riverview, FL years ago. The guy said it was a great view. That's as high as we could go because the "big transformer" was on and if you were to go any higher it fries you and your cojones to crispy critters!! I thanked them for the offer.......

The balls this job would require I think would prevent a man from being able to walk, much less climb the tower. im gonna say that have the idiot chromosome in place of the fear one!
