If you tried to hire them to paint it, they wouldnt do it. Thats the difference 49 years makes. Your friend did it because he wanted to. Today it is all about the social media show. Now a million people will watch this and 20 more kids will try it to outdo these knuckleheads. Then one will fall off and the parents will take the county to court and get 50 million bucks because it wasnt properly guarded. The county will spend another 50 million making it so no one can get to it. Then we will all be safer.

I have a real fear of heights. While watching that video, I had this awful pain in the pit of my stomach. I guess I am weird.

I am not afraid of height but when I walk over to the edge of anything or watch something like that I feel it in the knees.

I stopped watching it. I don't like ladders and elevators that much, and that is amazingly stupid.

As Broderick Crawford used to say on Highway Patrol Send the coroner.

I just watched that entire episode. Is that how things really happened back then?

I don't know but the cars are still pretty.:trophy:
Yep just like that, life was even in black and white.
Loved that show as a kid. We would all sit down and tune the TV to channel 12 and watch Highway Patrol.

look on the top of a crane the next time you are around one
i have climbed up the jib to the top with a cutting torch slung over my shoulder
to fix a fouled line.
cut the line, re-string the main pulley
with out a safety harness or tie ropes
back in the day, we had no idea what a harness was
