Climbing the worlds tallest antenna at 1768 feet high... I can not express the levels of anxiety watching this gave me.

When I watch this i keep flipping between two thoughts "what if your hand slips! How many people die doing this"... and "Ok this is really the only big fear I havent conquered, how could i learn to do this".. not that I ever would, it might be too big a fear to get over. But I learned to scuba dive out of a fear of it (partly) and while the first dozen or so dives were very scary after that it wasnt scary at all, now I dive down to where the light doesnt reach and wont bat an eye. I have to wonder, could I maybe learn to overcome a fear of heights the same way? Maybe I should learn to mountain climb...

@freemo yeah, no! I'm afraid of heights where I don't feel safe. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜¨

I haven't even watched it yet but I think it's the same one I saw where there's only like 6 guys in the entire USA that will fix these towers because they're crazy and somehow lack fear.
