I expect whoever is in the basket is happy to have a job. It's all good until that crane arm lets go. :isadizzy:
 
Makes one consider the logistical planning that must go into window-washing. Make sure your potty breaks are taken care of before you get into the car, and maybe you'd better bring your lunch with you.
 
Yeah...that looks scary...but still safer than being a police office in a number of large US cities I can think off.

Yeah, with my luck, I'd get the partner in the gondola that's a fun-guy...you know, likes to rock the bucket, shake the guide wires, hang off the edge.....
