On the Horizon: What goes up must come down – right?

by Rob in Oklahoma Horizon TV| 2 Comments

When it comes to heights, I’m one of the biggest scaredy-cats out there. I don’t do roller coasters and I definitely don’t like to climb really high things. But, like with everything in life, the day came where I had to conquer this fear.

Living in one of the windiest states in America it’s no surprise to see wind towers going up faster than gas prices. But I never knew what it takes to maintain them once they are installed – both from a knowledge and physical standpoint. Thanks to my job, I got an inside look at the training process and tried not to look too much like wimp.

In this week’s video blog, we go up inside a wind machine and take a look at the rescue training process turbine workers must go through before heading out into the field.

It was not one of my favorite stories. I really try to enjoy things life throws my way but this was one of those situations when that didn’t happen. I figured people can at least get a good laugh with this one. Thanks for watching!!
