If you're gonna fall, after the first 100 feet it don't matter - you might as well make a big splat :D

Yes, they get paid well.

watch the beginning of the video -- a lot more folks up there, where it starts.

These People (http://www.universalsteeplejack.com/) used to be a client of mine -- watch the video on the right side..

It looks like a perfect launching pad for a base jump and it would be much quicker than down-climbing.

I work in the wireless/tower business; it doesn't bother me that I'm not allowed to climb towers.

Helicopter?

That was my thought. Watching them climb the tower I couldn't help but think it would be easier (not that it's easy) going up than coming down.
