		| | His fitness level would be incredible. Apart from the undeniable fact that it would take me 3 days just to climb it, I'd be fine with the harness and lanyard setup until that very tip top bit. He can keep that bit. |

		| | Let's see: 12 inches a step would be 1500 rungs, right? If you averaged 10 seconds a rung, that would be 15,000 seconds, which is 250 minutes. Which is not much more than 4 hours. Should be doable, eh? Jejeje... |

 And wouldn't you think they'd have figured out a better way to do this when they built the darn thing?  Like maybe they could have it hinged halfway up and swing the arm down to the ground or something??  I mean it's not as if lightbulbs do not burn out.
 
 I didn't even like watching it LOL

 I'd counter, "What's WRONG with the way they're doing it?" Built-in ladder, dude who likes to climb tall things, problem solved. Mountain climbers have to make a living too :-)

		| | I'm usually ok with the climbing up (although nothing of that height), it's the coming down that is the hard part..... |

 And I was kind of kidding, Bear.  But I really, really hate heights.
