Viral Video Claims Job Pays $130,000 To Change a Single Lightbulb

Imagine a job that pays a staggering $130,000 to change a single lightbulb, albeit a massive one hundreds of feet off the ground. Sounds too good to be true, right? Well, it’s real, but there’s a catch. This unique and high-paying job role has been making waves on social media, leaving people both shocked and skeptical. The role of a Tower Climber offers an impressive salary, but it demands nerves of steel and physical prowess due to its high-altitude operations.

Being a Tower Climber

The job itself involves replacing lightbulbs for signal towers that reach heights of over 600 meters.1 These signal towers are different from ordinary tall towers as they consist of a metal bracket, with thinner brackets at higher altitudes. What makes this job truly awe-inspiring is the lack of protective measures for climbers, who rely solely on a rope to safeguard them during their daring ascent. The video shared on TikTok by Science8888 showcases the breathtaking climb one must make to perform this essential task.2

Becoming a Tower Climber is not for the faint-hearted. The primary requirement for this role is a complete lack of fear of heights. Climbing up the 600-meter tower takes approximately three hours, with the round trip extending to a staggering six hours. Moreover, the top of the tower experiences wind speeds of nearly 100 kilometers per hour, adding another layer of peril to the job. Those aspiring to take on this challenging career must be in peak physical condition and possess a firm grip to ensure their safety during the daring climb.
