There's daring accomplishments, there's "crazy" and then there's....

Damn @Treblig! Its crazy how crazy we were in our youth!!!

While working the LMR (Land Mobile Radio) shop during my Air Force career I had the added responsibility of being the QA for anything the contractor repaired. One time, the contractor had to add a new LMR antenna to the top of the water tower. When he got done, I was to inspect it to make sure it was a quality installation. I made it about 10 rungs up before I looked around and could see what seemed like 50 miles (It was in Del Rio, Texas!) and hurried back down. From the ground, it looked like a very good installation!!!
Here's the only pic I could find of it, its the wider one in the back.
