This video took my mind off everything that’s happening in the world. Why? Because at 1500 feet in the air on a communication tower, you better pay attention to nothing else. My heart rate went up and my palms began to sweat as I watched this video. They could offer me a million dollars to replace one of those men, and I’d decline. Crazy brave, they are or just crazy.

Tom, according to comments made by guys who claim to do that kind of work, their hourly wage is not very much - less than $35 per hour.

This isn't a dress rehearsal. Enjoy yourself. There's no do-over.

They seem so calm moving around way up there on that tiny platform. How can they not be affected by the height?
Anyways, at the risk of thread-jacking, I followed a related youtube link and found it pretty compelling too.
A guy and his wife and two daughters returning from his brother's funeral in a chartered King Air has to take the controls and land the plane when the pilot suddenly dies shortly after takeoff.
Lucky, he had 80 hours experience in a Cessna 18 years earlier but gave up flying.
yikes.
I couldn't stop watching.
