As a radio tower worker, those connection points that hold the ladders in place are rated for incredible amounts of weight and are supposed to connect every ladder assembly to a secure point. They could have connected the carabiner to each one, descended a short distance each time, and eventually make it to the platform below. They pass two of them every time they go up and down and it just makes me mad that it was completely ignored.

But what if the carabiners are too thick to fit through the bolt holes? Those connection points are typically not much more than a flat piece of steel welded to the tower with a hole at the end. If you can´t fit the carabiner through the hole, you can´t attach it. In 5:03 and 5:46 you can see what i mean.

According to IMDB: The filmmakers had considered green screen or digital sets, but ultimately opted for the real thing. They decided to build the upper portion of the tower on top of a mountain so that the actors would really appear to be thousands of feet in the air, even though in real life they were never more than a 100 feet (30 meters) off the ground. Still makes me scared however.

Solution. You connect the rope to each other, wrap it around the pole, then position your feet against the pole. You wrap it around the pole enough times so that you pull the rope tight when "standing" from the pole. You both then "walk" down the pole on opposite sides where the tension and friction in the rope prevents it from dropping. Similar principle to being between two surfaces, putting your hands on one side, feet on the other, and "crawling" up it.

Then she shakes the ladder to scare Becky, and then, BIG SURPRISE! The ladder falls away into the distance.

[@esterbun9356]

The only time she was reasonable and a good friend was when she was dead. And that was a warped perception of her made by a grieving becky who was hallucinating after the trauma of watching her friend get eaten, so all of her actions were pretty much how she viewed her friend - when in actuality - she sucked. Entire movie until she was dead, she sucked. I think the most heartbreaking and horrible part of the movie was when it was revealed that she had a tattoo to commemorate her friends husband and what 'could have been'. So even if her husband had survived, and none of the movie ever happened she probably would have stolen becky's husband from her at some stage. What made it worse is that hunter caused becky to lose touch with her dad, the only person in the world who cared about her because she was just so selfish. ughh i hated her.

[@BoomBlitz7]

Hunter didn’t deserve to die because she didn’t do anything wrong that would deserve a death sentence. Also got teaches us that killing is wrong, even if someone kills, you shouldn’t kill. That’s why I’m not a big fan of the death penalty. I’ll admit, Hunter was one of the worst “friends” anyone can ever have. But still doesn’t deserve death. Edit: I have realized the mistake I made lol, what I was tryna say was Hunter was a b*tch but I wouldn’t say death was good cuz Hunter’s death traumatized Becky even more. (“Also for the people saying do serial killers deserve death?” Yes I think most of them do.) Hunter wasn’t intentionally tryna kill Becky tho.

I honestly really like Hunter as a character. Not like I think that she's a good person or anything- I think she's well-written. She's been a bad friend through and through to Becky: having an affair with her significant other, abandoning her in her time of need, etc. and she seems to understand that, but now that she understands that she wants to make a misguided attempt to help her through this tower climb. Like, imagine doing that to try and help, only to realize how much worse you made everything. She was probably overcome by guilt through that whole situation, and that was most likely part of her reason to risk her life getting the bag in the first place. She knew that she'd done nothing but ruin her friend's life up until this point, and in her head she wanted to risk her life to make it up to her somehow. Her death is also really poetic, in the sense that it directly helped Becky to survive and get out of the situation- her body was dropped with the phone and used to call for help, so that even after death she was there for Becky. Even if she wasn't a good friend, she tried her best to redeem herself, and dying trying to do so is honestly a really good way to handle her character.

How do you go from losing a loved one to climbing to go climbing an even more dangerous old radio tower with steps falling off and not even tell anyone you know that you're going climbing? Its climbing 101 to tell someone you're going climbing in case you get stuck or hurt. Also 7:05 attaching the hooks to ladder would've meant they fall to their death when the ladder broke that wouldve been logical to hook to the ladder but in this case the guy from the video doesent make sense, this movie doesent make sense, nothing makes any sense

@@lonekie so I’ll clarify how this whole thing worked. We’d usually have like 2 to 4 guys. 1 man climbs (it’s rare that you ever have to go up these things) everyone else are ground men. We have a long ass rope attached to a tool bag to hoist up after you reach the top. The ladders actually have cages around them to keep you safe and your harness has 2 carabiners that you constantly move as you climb so it’s hard to fall. Also the light is never high and unreachable. It’s designed so you can safely work on it. Most of my days were spent building and climbing 🧗‍♀️ those tall electrical transmission towers you see coming off of power plants. They are usually around 200 foot tall. At first it’s pretty scary but once you sit back and take in the view it’s pretty cool. I’m older now and like being at home with my family so I run heavy equipment these days. To me that’s way more fun. I play with life sized tonka toys.

fun fact that idk if he talked about, cause i was watching the vid on the side: emergency line calls often connect even if you have no service. emergency lines have a thing, where your phone can use a lot more frequencies and devices for transmission than just normal cell towers. so if you are ever stranded with your car and no service, or lost somewhere, try and call anyways, even if it says no service. you dont need a service plan, a sim card, or even a single bar of connection (or visible connection at all) to call 911 and such. your phone will try to connect anyways, and every phone is open to do so, no matter the circumstances. if you are really out of range of any kind of frequency, then it might not work. but even just getting an sms out to emergency might work that way if your phone gets a random frequency that it can send on for a few seconds. in the case of the girls in the movie, write an sms, or something, try sending it every few minutes (weather and co might change, or unlikely but maybe, some mobile sender thing will pass through somewhere) then if it doesnt go through, wrap your phone in a shirt, and yeet it as far as you can towards civilisation, and pray it got some frequency during the fall. Edit: I just read up again, and some phones can apparently also use satellite comms for emergency. so even on that tower you would be save with certain phones. also if you go climbing BRING A DUCKING SATTELITE EMERGENCY PHONE!!

[@kurisurisuku]

[@HaiTharImDavid]

Right you start to realize why she wasn't doing anything. Even piloting her own drone.

[@radioreader]

It was justified by the fact that she burnt her hands on the rope when she fell (to her death), hence why Becky is now the one who needs to execute the risky attemps at saving "them". Quite clever from the scenarists.

[@crymair7454]

you weren't paying attention when watching the movie, the reason she DIDN'T do all those things.. is because she COULDN'T.. remember she DIED. Becky was hallucinating that she was alive... which is why she couldn't touch her, control the drone or catch the bag.. remember even though she was "bleeding" the birds never attached Hunter because she was dead from the "retrieving bag scene." - But yes.. I do wish she lived.

[@radioreader]

@@crymair7454 at this point in the story the writers don't want you to figure out yet that she is dead. They had to come up with a reason for Becky to do all the tasks from then on, other than her being actually alone, as she doesn't know she's hallucinating her friend. The burns on the hands are enough of a reasonable explanation to last for a couple scenes, before the tragic end reveal.

They have a climbing rope, that can usually hold about 2000 kg of weight. It is made from several strands. Untangle the rope, so that you have a 4 times longer rope, that can hold about 500kg. Should be long and stable enough to repel down.

[@day.break3r_.]

that would actuqlly work because the entire outer ladder fell down but the outer section was only 200m tall and the climbing rope (not untangled) is 50m. if you were to untangle that it would be around 200m, maybe a bit less but that wouldnt matter as they could swing down. that would get them to the inner ladder and then they could just climb down carefully

They could have shimmed down using each other and the rope as counterweights, with the rope looped around themselves to ensure they have the right amount of slack because obviously 50 ft is too much. Think tug of war but while walking down the side of the tower. They wouldn't have had to go all the way down either, only to the internal ladder. They would have been off the tower before sunset.

[@hobogrifter]

Even then, you could do that by yourself (after hunter dies). By wrapping the rope around the tower and you and slowly moving down. Kind of like a lumberjack.

Something struck me as odd at the very beginning - who in their right mind would wear shorts while climbing an iron tower in the middle of a freaking desert?

Also, neither of them is wearing gloves. WTF!!!

I feel like once Hinter made it down to the satellite to retrieve the backpack, Beck’s should’ve untied the rope since they had approximately 50 ft of it and dropped it down to Hunter. Then Hunter could’ve tied a knot and made her way to the next platform and climbed down the rest of the way and get help.

1. Lumberjack use of rope around tree to climb up and down ( basically loop the rope around the tower, put yourself between rope and tower, put tension on the rope with your body, release and generate tension on rope as you rappel down) would be difficult on a larger diameter pipe, but that tower segment looks thin enough. 2. Cover and uncover tower light repeatedly in SOS code instead of breaking that mf. 19:42: instead of tying the rope to the end of the platform, just FEED IT THROUGH THE GRILL. The image of the woman trying her hardest to reach the backpack also has its impact dulled by the fact that she decided to let the rope down on the opposite side of the platform relative to the backpack...
