Speechless. Steeplejacks, not sure they still exist. Not even a harness, have a watch of this. I’m not scared of heights but even watching this made me go a bit pale. The wind is blowing a gale and at one point he even lights a cigga while he walks harness-free on planks that aren’t even fastened. And just the climb up and down the ladder would be exhausting and terrifying. The world of work has changed so much (this is only 1982).
