    How much would you have to be paid to do this?

    I probably could not do it. But if I could, 1 million dollars would probably do it.

    Wow I wonder how much you get paid for this. No way I could ever do this for any amount of money.

    Here's what I found on what some of them get paid:

    How much money do you make as a tower climber?

    It depends on who you work for. Some companies don’t pay very well, so it varies. Last year, I think I made $60,000. But that’s working 60 hours a week on average.

    60K a year? I wouldn't do it once for 60K much less 60 hrs/week.

    I would need 6 figures a month and I wouldn't do more than 8 towers a month twice a week is plenty and benefits would have to be ridiculous especially the life insurance.

    Look at the quote,
    "How much money do you make?
    Depending upon how much you work and what company you’re with the pay can range from $32,000 to $50,000 per year. They don’t make as much as you’d think. When I first started I thought, “I know these guys are making $50 an hour,” but it’s not true."

    heres the full article.

    Look how calm he is while doing it too

    I think I'd feel more secure wearing a parachute than that safety harness.

    That was fun to watch, but doesn't matter on the pay I couldn't do it and wouldn't want to be the guy below me if after he got on the outside for several reasons.

    I have a friend who works on the big wind mills in Illinois. Don't think its quite that high, but its ******* up there. Crazy how some guys don't wear a safety harness.

    that made me sick at my stomach. Why didnt he show us what he does when he gets there? That would be the interesting part.

    Why was his climbing partners face blocked out? Is he a registered sex offender?

    That was 7 minutes I'll never get back but I think I'll go climb on top of the house now

    I'll do that shit for 10k. Shit, I had to pay last year at the bash to jump out of a ******* plane, I know it's not the same thing but the adrenaline rush is there. To me it would be more of a mental thing, when you are in situations like that your mind starts to try to **** with you with ideas like "I wonder what would happen if I let go?" and shit like that.

    I will try to be sober for at least a month before doing it though, don't want any drugs on my system while doing that shit.

    ok, first of all, this vid was a joke.. here's why. 1- he had himself hooked so he couldn't fall.. and 2- he had a parachute in case he fell..

    you want to really get sick to the stomach. tell me how many would do this?? i bet no one would do this for 2 million dollars. this crazy drunk russian kid did this from 1,000 feet up with no parachute or safety hooks.

    Tell me this don't scare you??

    Not really the heights as much as the lightning and wind that would scare me... Imagine being up at the top and suddenly a drop of rain hits your face. FUUUUUUK
