Would You Climb the Empire State Building for a Paycheck?

Back in 2000, photographer Vincent Laforet scaled the Empire State building, a 1250 foot journey that would make me wet my pants. 

As Laforet describes his one time incredible experience, he points out that some people do this for a living...every day.

Watch below for a fascinating account of the day in the life of the fearless people who work on transmission lines and antennas on some of the worlds scariest skyscrapers.
