When I was a full-time Road Warrior, one night I'm in a local bar in Gettysburg South Dakota and strike up a conversation with some tv/radio tower climbers. This went on for several hours and everyone had a pretty good buzz on. The ironic thing is they were going up towers in the morning ......... no way on God's green earth I could do that sober much less with any kind of Hangover!
They just don't have the fear of heights issue.
