Imagine walking five street blocks in a city like, say, New York. Then think about climbing that distance straight up.
That’s what Kevin Schmidt does for a living: changing the airplane warning lights at the top of super tall TV towers.
This drone from PrairieAerial caught the guy in action as he climed the now-defunct analog KDLT antenna in Salem, SD. Watch the whole thing as he grabs a vertigo-inducing selfie at the top.
Sure, he’s got a safety harness that he uses on his long climb, but still — how does he not get dizzy? Maybe he never actually looks down, as the drone camera seems fond of doing. Yikes.
