I was going to say the same thing. I'm sure that tower moves quite a bit.

When I worked for a small school district, all of our school sites were
connected through point-to-point wireless. So all the schools had
towers on the roofs. I think the highest off the ground we ever got was
about 100 feet, and that was on a tower that was on top of the
multi-purpose room. The tower itself was only maybe 40-50 feet, and
when the wind blew, it swayed... quite a bit. My stomach was cringing
just watching that video, I can't imagine what it would be like with
wind up there.

I wouldn't want to be the guy following him...because I'm sure that at
the
slightest gust of wind...you're *GOING* to get covered!! LOL!!

You're right. Went back and looked at the video.

The video says that he’s “free climbing”. He’s only using
the safety
harness to rest, not each time he moves.

Their using a safety hook.
Look at the video and you will see that each time he moves up he
moves
the hook for his safety line. The Tool Pouch is attached to him from
behind.
And each time he takes a break, you can see the safety hook and the
safety
line.
I cringed when I saw this video, but I did see the tech take all
necessary
precautions, too.

No, no, no – 1786 times no – I could not do that. Free-climbing
to the top
of that tiny pole? I’ve climbed sailboat masts and that took all I
could
manage.
I love the way the announcer says “this is the tricky part” when
the guy
is about 1770 feed up already.

We have a pair of 70' towers that we have our wireless bridges
mounted on.
I think they're really tall. I'd never go up them. Then I see a
video like
this to put things in perspective.
