I'll admit to being a little bit of a wuss myself. The tallest stick I ever climbed was just shy of 200', and I didn't enjoy it.

I jumped out of a plane at 11,000', but there's no f'n way I'd "free climb" that tower. F that.

Apart from the fairly high risk of snagging one of the many guy wires or crashing into the tower itself, you'd have to carry said parachute all the way to the top with you.

That said, if she can do it, you can do it:

I just can't believe she climbed up there wearing those shoes...

She's kind of a crazy chick, though. Fun, but nutty. We worked together in Dallas about 10 years ago.

Likelihood: Rare
Consequence: Catastrophic (for individual)
Risk Assessment: Ignore all warnings until actual fatality occurs. Then create new government agency to regulate the industry.

Yeah, that's the biggest hazard associated with climbing several hundred feet straight up, with no harness, wearing sandals.


I'm all out of good tower photos. So cat video:

Yes, ignoring those obvious issues.
