VIDEO: Man climbs 280 metre tower - with no harness

Filmed by Flaviu Cernescu, it shows his POV as he climbs a 290 metres chimney in Pitesti, Romania - with no harness or safety equipment. He uses hanging electrical cables for the first part of his climb before switching to some rickety-looking ladders. As he says, do not try this yourself.
