Could you do this?

Wouldn't it have been easier to winch them out of a helicopter?

Thats a better idea.
Do you ever go to bed ?

Yep, usually about now. Craig has got pre-school tomorrow so no lie in.

I'm only 5'8" and that scares me if I look down. Can't stand heights anymore and had a couple of moments where i froze on a roof. Don't go up there anymore.

I used to do a lot of height work till I hit my forties, including masts when rigging but my worst moment was on a jury rigged stage on a ships bridge, I'd used an upturned trestle as a normal stage wouldn't work on the bit I was working on. The job was to get a rusted bit freed up and I was chipping away with a chipping hammer holding on with one hand (early seventies no harness on ship) when a rope slid a bit, I let go the hammer mid swing and grabbed the other rope as my feet slipped off the trestle, the hammer clattered off the bridge front, bounced and hit me straight in the gob, knocking out my bottom front tooth.

What a ####in nightmare, leave go and grab injured mouth then fall 80ft or scramble about with feet till safe again, I get the shakes even now thinking about it. H

I got my wings and did plenty para drops, but there is no way you would even get me 100 feet up that tower...absolutely no way ! I don't know how you managed the Ramp stuff Andy

[gwh200]

I watched it again...don't know why...it made my sh!t itch.

[Apache]

Do you mean this ramp John?

I dunno, it wasn't an issue for me. felt perfectly safe even when banking hard in the mountains. But that mast - absotively no feckin waaaay!!!
