[Japan]

my hands did quite literally sweat

[Crover_CT99]

Balls of steel.

[purist]

Holy shit.

[JackFlash]

I used to rock climb with a guy who did that shit. He said the guy that would change the beacon light would get a bonus in their crew :)

I know it's impractical most of the time but it's pretty nerve wracking how much they seem to not be protected or clipped in while climbing.

[Thulghor]

Wow! I'd rather jump out of air planes. At least then you have a parachute, and it's quick. That...wow.

[Alawen Everywhere]

It seems like it would be more efficient to base jump when they're done.

[Rogean]

How much do they get paid doing that shit? One would hope a lot but I bet they don't get anything extra for that danger =\

[Aasimon]

I imagine they receive hazard pay, which can be quite substantial.

[Fearghus]

No.

[OngorDrakan]

[Hasbinbad]

Fuck .. a .. BUNCH .. of .. THAT.

[ryuut1]

i poo'd my pants...all that for a lightbulb

[Slade_the_Slide]

Couldn't do it. No way, Jose.

[Blancah]

yeah, no thanks.

[JackFlash]

I forget what my buddy told me but the pay isn't all that great. Not enough to make him continue climbing.
