I am afraid of heights but I trusted my gear and it made it ok to hang off poles on windy days.
That tower stuff is for the birds.

It took a bit for me to go to the railing of Hatteras Lighthouse, but I did it! It's been decades since I've been up the Eiffel Tower at King's Dominion and I'd probably psych myself out now...LOL!

My point exactly and I was going to mention that but didn't and it was extremely calm at that altitude, either that or the video was really cleaned up.
