I often think that about the boys who do the cell masts 'n shit. Everyone says, like; 'No Way! Balls of Titanium!' and all that. Do they realise those guys are completely clipped on, basically incapable of falling, practically if they wanted to? But; I Still think 'No way! Balls .....' Because, I think it must take a very particular fukking mind set, to go up that high, period. Or, am I in a minority? To me, that sort of height, in and of itself, just has a very large Nope factor. Clips or not. Like our pylon painters; Nope! Just fukk Right off! I'd get vertigo just standing on Mush's shoulders. And climbing? Physical exertion would stop my heart, long before the height fear could kick in! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mushroom 14,207 Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 I’ve done a few of them here. Good laugh but some points (overhangs) can get your arsehole twitching. Did one once with an ex and I had to literally push her up by her arse because she froze. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
