How do you get into it, do you think? Do they train you to go a few feet further each time, or find people who just don't suffer vertigo?
I've stood on the edge of the Grand Canyon and it's an odd feeling. Actually, I was probably no closer than 6 feet from the edge... but I physically couldn't get any closer.
One thing I noticed was that the tower wasn't very climber friendly.
There were a couple of points where he was transitioning from different levels of the tower and there wasn't much room for him to put his feet - would have been too much for them to build a ledge?
Also, when he was climbing the rungs, he was just looping his clip into them - not very secure. Again, why could they not make periodic holes nearby for the climber to use?

Yeah, there is one point where he is struggling and grabs hold of one of the bolts to pull himself up!! F that! lol
