Only if the pay was right.

'Right':

One climb
Lifetime supply of money
100 virgins

They should pay me for watching that video.

Those guys have some balls. I don't really consider myself afraid of heights, but you couldn't pay me enough to do that.

Maybe if I had a parachute attached to my back.

What do you suppose those guys do for an adrenaline rush. Something tells me going wakeboarding wouldn't do it.

Yikes, I looked down halfway through it and yep, my palms are sweating like they never have.

Travis Pastrana would base jump off the top. That would be a base jumper's dream job.

I would be all over that, as long as I had a BASE rig on. Would be amazing to work up there, then take the express elevator down.

Granted I skydived for 4 years with 650 jumps.

Money has got to be good for that. I just kept thinking "where in the hell is this guy going?'"

That is absolutely crazy!

I would have thought they made really good money too, but from this interview I found, pay starts at $30k a year and caps at about $50k

It would be my luck I would get to the top and not have the right size wrench. I guess once you are high enough to die from the fall, what's a little higher?

My palms were sweating too.
