I like the first comment:

Thumbs up if this video made your asshole clench
I'm in that looks like fun!! I have hand glided, bungee jumped, Sky Dived Many times. I have always wanted to go base jumping but haven't found anybody to teach me. But climbing a tower like that fun fun fun. Tell me where it is and I'll go.

I think I'm going to have a nightmare about that. I don't think I'm scared of heights, but that video made my heart skip a beat.
Uncle Sam threw me out of a few airplanes; but, I don't think I could climb that tower....its 600 feet higher than what we jumped from!

OMFG! I have a pair of big ones, but they shrunk to the size of cranberries by the time that cat got to the top!

Just imagine once you get to the top, and suddenly realize you shouldn't have had that three burrito special at Taco Bell for lunch?

If the guy lost his grip just once...splat! He'd have a long time to think about it on his fall to Earth, too!

Some of the guys I worked with (not me) had some special training with low level drops that were mistakenly too close to the ground. The three I knew who where on that drop told of not believing the cute would open in time; it did, they had one or two side swings before they hit the ground. There were several broken bones on that drop, but no loss of life.

Tallest tower I've climbed is 840ft. The view from up to is amazing. It does suck to do it on a windy though, but can be a fun ride.
I wonder if a parachute is standard equipment for that climb or if it would make it more unsafe because of the extra weight. OSHA actually permits free climb in tower services. Something about the act of tethering is more unsafe than free climb.

Another cool vid I have seen is a worker climbing to the top of the Burj Dubai. When he looks out the other tall buildings are way below.
