With the current proposal with two men and no spike, I think there is still
the chance for being hurt or killed. Without a spike, it seems like it
would be more dangerous, not only with one of the towers loosing grip on
either the handle "spike", or the pulley and the tower who didn't let go is
gonna get "whacked". Also, the energy it will take if someone has to
do too many one person tows with no pulley will be bound to give someone a
stroke or heart attack on one of these 100 F degree plus flying days we
typically see in the summer.
