Almost 1800 foot tall antenna tower maintenance. Take a look of the ground when he takes a break climbing.

Probably the most ballsy thing to do on the planet. I like heights, but free climbing at 1500 feet is a whole other realm of heights.  Wow !!

Yep, lightning is definitely something to consider when climbing an 1800 foot tower, just as the long curvy cliffside walk just to get to that glass bridge. It looks even worse!
