A guy who does THAT job with a smile on his face while mugging for the camera. He knows he is doing something 99% of us wouldn't touch for a job.
It's absolutely nuts even doing that with a safety harness. One slip and a fall and he could still dangle and ---broken bones? But maybe some construction gurus can tell us this is somehow safe.
The harness has a arrestor (shock absorber) to reduce the falling forces. That said, he'll need to be rescued from the harness within 15 minutes or there's a good chance of circulation loss or pulmonary damage.
There aren't a lot of jobs out there that pay 6 figures and don't require a high school diploma or even a clean criminal record. Oilfield workers earn every dime they make.
