Liebherr - At icy heights

Four tower cranes were in continuous operation during the construction of Europe’s tallest building, the Lakhta Tower. At dizzying elevations, a Liebherr service technician made sure that everything ran smoothly, even in extreme weather conditions. Read more in our story:

I hear you. It's so weird how the human brain works. I guess, you're either totally uncomfortable with those kind of fights or totally comfortable. Like me? I'll go on any roller coaster at any amusement park anywhere east to west coast U.S. but take the giant Ferris wheel at these Six Flags type amusement parks? Hell no. I'm not cool dangling from two bolts 300 feet in the air. I'm feeling more than safe doing a hundred miles an hour on a roller coaster that has seven loops. You won't get me on that ferris wheel.

I climbed cell towers for years installing the towers themselves and all sorts of different antennas and cables. My record work height is 454’ on a tower in Northern VA outside of Richmond. This is really high. I’d love to work on something like this. I am a bit long in the tooth now to go back to my halcyon days, but I’d do it just for the thrill. Good video and the Liebherr cranes were an integral part of doing our work in the cell tower industry. The best hydro cranes on the market worldwide.

Mad respect to the employees who do this-my palms are sweating. I wonder what type of medical/work insurance they must have.

[@Kenionatus]

I'm pretty sure construction workers are much more likely to get injured. Crane inspectors and operators are always attached to the crane when not in the cabin. Construction workers work below the crane, in the constant danger of being crushed by the cranes load when the operator isn't careful or being hit by something someone dropped a couple floors above, falling down shafts or into sharp objects, cutting themselves with grinders, knifes and chainsaws, eye damage from caustic concrete. Then there's back pain, lung disease from breathing in dust and joint injury. I'm sure there are way more risks to the job that I forgot or don't know about.

In the tower alone is over "80 floors!" and the whole complex houses over 60 elevators! I imagine it would be possible to run a business independently without too many conflicts. I believe there are plans to construct 2 train lines to converge on this location also. Billionaires are risk takers and are never satisfied with billions. Lets be honest, who's happy with what they are making now? Hands up who would be happier with more but without the risk? Whatever the case maybe, Your definitely right.
