Pretty cool. Would have been really impressive if he assembled the tower himself on the way up.

Yeah, I saw this about a month ago, pretty cool... and stupid! Who else would have the balls to do that?!

Zee Germans are coming!

I don't think it was as dangerous as it looked. With full credit to the skill of the operator, each part was locked in to the tower before the other was disengaged.

Just the fact of operating tonnage of steel machinery at never-prescribed heights increases the danger factor for me.

That's some mad skills for sure. I like how it ended with the tracks doing the helicopter.

And I thought I was the shiznit when I took my forklift license. They only gave me half an inch of gap on either side of the forklift to manuever to pick up my freight.
