Gloves only help if you fall and land on your hands.
I've had leather gloves come of my hands while handling rebar.....on the ground.
I guess that's what those little cinches on the gloves are for, huh?

Wow! Even if I could make it up the tower, paralyzing fear would keep me from climbing down. I had stomache churning vertigo just watching the video. Installing gutter guards last year on our 2 story was the limit for me.

There is not enough money to get me to do that. I quit climbing on the roof about 3 years ago.

Cute the way he attached his safety line to the step posts(easily slide off the end if needed).
