Climbing the worlds tallest antenna at 1768 feet high... I can not express the levels of anxiety watching this gave me.

When I watch this i keep flipping between two thoughts "what if your hand slips! How many people die doing this"... and "Ok this is really the only big fear I havent conquered, how could i learn to do this".. not that I ever would, it might be too big a fear to get over. But I learned to scuba dive out of a fear of it (partly) and while the first dozen or so dives were very scary after that it wasnt scary at all, now I dive down to where the light doesnt reach and wont bat an eye. I have to wonder, could I maybe learn to overcome a fear of heights the same way? Maybe I should learn to mountain climb...

I think the adrenaline rush would exhaust me

@lucifargundam You would probably get used to it and not have much of an adrenaline rush. Much like looking over a cliff from a secure location
