I had to do this once. Once. I don't give a damn that the harness is good and totally will support my weight; I can still dangle around and smack into the damn tower I am tethered to. ๐ฌ
Shit's crazy that it can be totally windless at the base, but once you're up halfway or so, it gets real windy. The only fun thing about the job that day was the tower we were installing equipment to was part of an old radio station, and inside the radio station building had all this super old ass radio equipment and we were fucking around with it pretending to be on the air.
