I looked up the "firefighter.com.ar" and this was shot in Argentina. I guess our South American brethren are immune to the effects of gravity! It boggles my mind as to why he's free climbing the tower without safeties. I loved the "crawl over the edge" technique to get started down. At least he used a bottom belayer.

Why are you climbing an open tower without any safety lanyards?
