Yup - that's the very thing. I don't mind heights but free-climbing 1700-foot antennas and unharnessed wire walking between two 110-story office towers is just that teensy bit beyond the pale.
Good with heights?

It's not the height that frightens folks, it's the thought of going into the floor like a dart!
Only problem I ever had working at height was when a lad on the opposite side of the crane jib we were working on had a funny turn and I and our safety man had to rescue him! No fun when someone suddenly turns to jelly. Since then have always needed to be 100% sure that I and my climbing bud are up to it. Though lately I have been working at around 120 foot max!
It's the knees you know,I don't like to talk about it.
