lol. I wonder how much those towers sway in the breeze. You could get sea sick up there, and I bet it's cold.

Im sure they do. My brother worked for a tower company out of Fresno and did jobs through out the state. I think it was mostly government jobs.

I'm amazed that OSHA does not require them to be tethered off while climbing. As tough as his job is, how about the guys that built the tower?.
