There was a huge thread about Fred Dibnah a few years ago. The man fascinates me I could watch clips of him all day. Best thing about him is that no matter the danger he's in he never swears I'd make a sailor blush even if I had the balls to do that. That transmitter clip gave me ballsuck IYKWIM incredible I'm sure they're very well paid.

Seen a program about these lads in helicopters changing conductors on pylons leaning out of a helicopter. Have to connect themselves to cable to earth first then do the job while the pilot hovers inches from the lines. Some skill

found this about the 1 we saw the lads working on
only 123 M but that is scary enough
those 500m ones are nuts

Anyone who climbs that should be given a knighthood. And a parachute!
