The Life Of A Tower Climber | Full Documentary
The Life Of A Tower Climber is an inside look into the industry that keeps our cell phones operational. I myself have an extensive background in tower climbing, which is the very reason I was compelled to make this documentary. Tower climbing is an obscure niche industry with a very small community of men and a few women. Every day tower climbers are subjected to all weather condition any hour of the day in all parts of the country year round. Not a year goes by that few or many are killed on the job. Serious change is needed in terms of safety, pay and overall care for the climbers.
This is the cost of keeping us all connected.

    I hate it, I don’t go anywhere without a gun because I’m paranoid. Not even kidding, not just when I go to stores or restaurants, but even in my own home I have to have it when I take a shit. Every night I have to check my doors over and over and clear anywhere big enough for a person to hide so that my brain will rest when I crawl into bed. If I start second guessing it, I have to get up and do it again or I can’t sleep. Shit just drains you. One day I hope I can get over it. I just want to live care free like most people, but it’s almost like an addiction.

Thought I was a lil crazy and that part where he said “why am I thinking this, we’re at a restaurant” I felt that heavy

    I got diagnosed with this as well… you never let your guard down, you will search and scan for threats, Ingress and egress routs… your mind draws lines highlighting paths of least resistance while navigating Walmart isles….. looking at attitudes, demeanors, waist lines, looking for weapons, looking for people who don’t want to be seen… looking at air vents, wall plugs, the way people interact with cashiers or just people in general…. Looking at cars, we can tell you the kind’s person you are likely to be, probably down to your home life… We don’t want to let go of it, because we feel that hyper vigilance is a skill rather than a form of PTSD…. We think it keeps us safe. But yes… our families have to deal with the dad that is a literal threat detector… and everything is a possible threat….. I did personal security in Iraq…. It sucks because you literally have to wargame any and every possible situation that most likely will not occur…

    I'm so glad his wife wasn't misunderstandables. My ex-wife used to think that I was that way because I was always afraid that the person I was cheating on her with would be there. I never cheated on her, come to find out later on in our relationship that she was the one cheating on me. I was just trying to protect my family because I love them more than anything else. Only to find out the person that I loved more than anything else was betraying my trust and love the whole time. Now I don't find it possible to love anybody anymore.

    Understood, it makes any outing hard to really attend mentally. You’re there physically but every scenario played out in your head, timing every move and option to each critical second. All this just from witnessing a murder too young and dealing with it in all the wrong ways through life.

    I’ve never served, so it doesn’t impact me the same. But I do the same shit, and my wife knows enough to always let me sit towards the entrance/exit and we never sit in the middle on a restaurant. She never opens doors, whether to get in or out of a car or building. I gotta scan the area before I allow her to get out. Always keep your head on a swivel. I’d rather seem paranoid than miss something and fail my job as the protector. I feel for this guy tho, it seems like it takes a toll on him.

    Been married 20 years. Still do this. Its so bad that once i pick where we sit my wife knows where im sitting. It rubbed off on her as well. So now she scouts with me. That has been how I got through it. My wife has embraced so much throughout the years. As many random acts of violence that has happened the last few years that need to read the area may come in handy.
