Did anyone else look away a few times during the video?

I cant climb a 30' ladder to hang Xmas lights without every limb on my body shaking like crazy... that's nuts! And to think people were working at that height to build the place!
Styg
Ive watched a few like that and there were a few times I knew if I was up there theyd have to bring up firemen to stop me from hugging something for safety... at the end when he stood on the top of the crane...

I think this was the first video to make my legs go wobbly. Worse then when we worked on a 26 story building for inspections and you stood near the edge.
I choose not to do that.

Styg: That is what I was thinking.
This is no where near as impressive, not trying to say it is, but on the topic of "Someone works there" I have a video of a man whose job I cannot do. He is repair surveillance cameras in the CN Tower on the Observation Deck. Nowhere near the top, but still, this guy is so casual about working at 342m above the ground. That wire mesh is just a mesh, as in holes, as in the outdoors getting through.

Think it an xvid or something.
You get used to working in those conditions for the most part pretty quick with frequent exposure. It's when the wind really picks up and the ride gets bumpy when you really start to pucker. No amount of netting or fall arrest can instill confidence in those situations. lol
I get a real chuckle when we occasionally get the guy on the job who doesn't handle heights very well and won't get with 5 feet of the edge of the roof.
