I wish I hadn't watched that, I'll be having nightmares!  They deserve a lot of money for doing that job.

Ã,£1500 a day or Ã,£290 and hour I read somewhere. But they also have the highest number of workplace fatalities. The climb doesn't look hard. It's 100ft of ladder. It's carrying that bag and not clipping in the makes this seem so horrible. It would take twice as long clipping in but I would definitely take that extra time to be on the safe side.
