The airbags deflated but she hasn’t.
We started that way back in the day. Now it is 100% Tie or Die. You are talking about 'work positioning' fall protection is different equipment. If you know/see someone not 'tied' and don't report it yourself, you're fired too.
Dead? Your no good to the crew or your family that will live with the consequences of your stupidity till the day they die.
By the way a Tower Dawg never would call themselves a 'Antenna Climbers.
Edit: I am a (Mulitple) Certified Trainer in the industry and have trained first responders in high angle rescue as well.
Whoop! Whoop!

The pussification of antenna work.
I spent most of my time on 90' wood poles, working on antennas...never needed a kewl "dawg" nickname to make me feel tuff.
LMAO Call us Pussies if you want...
This was on a 450' + stick IIRC. It isn't often that an accident is photographed but here is one. I was taking the photos after it happened I climbed up and helped him we work the rest of the day in the Tophat with winds that gusted over 70 mph and climbed down in the dark after wind calmed down.

The drunks you just leave them asleep. Less trouble that way. The drunks that wake up screaming and fighting, get no pain meds. STFU dumbass!
Bout 18 years ago that scenario played out. Our nearest Level 1 Trauma Center was a 22 minute drive, code 3. And back then we had Chevy 505 big blocks, on the straights, let it eat. Dude started fighting, and because he was so fucked up (trauma wise) there were two of us in the back. He didn't know how many of us it was going to take to whoop his ass, but we knew how many we were going to use. He arrived with all limbs tied to the cot. ER nurse said "yall are mean, I've seen tons of bilateral 14 guage IVs, just not in the back of the hands."
"Dude had good veins in the back of the hands, and the hands were tied down...What?"
Took a suicidal drunk to the ER to wait for the crisis team to do an assessment.
Drunk started screaming, cussing, and generally being obnoxious.
Er doc said to a nurse "It's been too long of a night for this shit, bring me an amp of succs."
One shot and a breathing tube later, peace and quiet.
