I used to do that about 25 years ago, not change the light bulbs at the top but climb towers to fix antenna problems at various levels. I can tell ya, at 600+ feet Every thing below looks tiny. Funny thing is, when I was first hired it was scary, scary, scary. But, we get used to stuff and I looked forward to climbing on nice days, the views were great. Not so nice days, no so fun.
It definitely was a workout. Dang, every 75-100' I'd have to stop for a few minutes to get my arms back.
Unfortunately, a few months after I left that line of work my best friend slipped and fell to his death. To this day I can't go near a cliff edge or get up on the roof without feeling vertigo. Just watching that video gets me dizzy.
