That's scary as shit - but what I don't understand is why he hooks himself onto certain parts - about 5:30 in the video he hooks himself onto a handle that he's climbing up with - yet if the hook (forgot the name) slides to the left about a foot it'd just fall off?

THIS!

Also the guy is climbing up a 60ft pole which is designed to attract electricity whilst using absolutely no safety equipment There must be a safer way of doing this surely?

Edit: also watching the end bit where he stood atop the pole and isn't even holding onto anything

that would be scarey and i bet it moves loads, i had to climb a mast which was 210 foot to a big platform to repair lighting at the top and i thought that was bad enough.

This guy will probably get 100+k a year , so its worth it
