Huge respect to both of you. Love what you do. I would have been PISSED if my trainee was failing to following instruction at the most critical point in the procedure you've been discussing and preparing for the last 15-20 minutes for! But, we all have obstacles we need to learn from..
I've worked many shows over the years, as well as climbed radio towers... BUT... BUT.... in the rain? I've never had to do that. I tip my hat to you and want to buy you a drink!
A very professional lesson, I am writing from Italy and I started working as a rigger since October 2023. I have the qualification and already have months of events behind me. I would really love to have an experience abroad
I remember when I first got into rope access I did a similar climb, I thought how hard could it be. Holy cow I was out of breath. I don’t know what kind of harness y’all have on but I would have road that crane up there
I would really recomend a petzel harness, it has spots to hook the shark hooks on the chest and make it easier to have your hand free when climbing. otherwise great work! A little bit different from climbing in a wind turbine tower but the principle is the same !
"The rope, that yellow thing" wow, seems like basic training should take place on the ground. Are you union ? We never work heights in the rain in Detroit [Carpenters]. We'll sit around for 4 hours, if it doesn't stop we call it a day. No wind over 20 mph either. I remember my 1st job working heights was a 4 story cooling tower, my knees were shaking uncontrollably like a little girl, I almost dragged up. Glad I didn't, got used to it quick and made a nice career out of it.
I always thought it was weird seeing all our Safety videos only coming from American real life scenarios. Now I understand why, not to say its wrong, but in my country the employer would be fined making employees work on heights and worse on temporary structure set ups during the rain. Its not impossible but it surely is a national safety standard to stop work
Yeah and he climbed above the hook then clipped on with his 2 nd clip if he always clipped on level or above and slipped he wouldn’t fall far but the way he done it having the clip below him then climbing with no clip above if he slipped he will have a grater fall I work in climbing and that is not how you clip on always be under a clip or level then clip the next one on as far as you can reach take one off climb level clip the next one on never climb above the clip he is doubling his fall rate doing it that way we all make mistakes but he training the other guy if he was getting tested for climbing in the uk he would fail
Wasn't sure if I was just telling him how it normally goes or if I was actually telling him right at that moment to look up. We all have our moments lol its a lot to take in.
Lol no Connor is just a jokester and wasn't aware at the time that I was being serious. He has rigged in other industries before, just first time in concerts.
I don't know if Connor is gonna make it 🤨. If I have to warn you three fucking times that you're about to be smacked upside the grape by a 600lb steel ball that's swinging on the end of a cable and it still takes like 45 seconds for you to look up and have it sink in, you might be too mentally slow for this job. At least for *my crew.
The experienced guy wasn't quite assertive enough with his directions if you ask me. He sounds scared and shouldn't be leading someone on a job like this.
Connor is very experienced in rigging as well, just in a different work environment. He just wasn't sure if I was just explaining or actually telling him at that moment to look up lol but all good on all fronts.
Hi! Experienced rigger from the video here, I was definitely not scared, I just knew how slow the ball was actually moving and knew it wasn't a need to freak him out from sounding super urgent. If the ball was swinging at the speed of light then yes my assertiveness would have been a whole lot different. But we got the job done, no harm no foul.
That trainee's heart doesn't seem in it. Complete lack of eagerness to learn and more than one occasion he seemed oblivious to what he should be concentrating on.
@@worldwiderigging people like you are needed in the world man you need your own business, Imagine having that same work ethic but for your own company you'd be really successful
Good communication from the man teaching. And although you could tell the student was a bit uncomfortable, he did good!! Job well done, gentlemen!!!
Thank you and yes, he's grown to become one of competent riggers. Connor is a rockstar!
Huge respect to both of you. Love what you do.
I would have been PISSED if my trainee was failing to following instruction at the most critical point in the procedure you've been discussing and preparing for the last 15-20 minutes for! But, we all have obstacles we need to learn from..
Great teacher . Kind man
Thank you good sir.
I've worked many shows over the years, as well as climbed radio towers... BUT... BUT.... in the rain? I've never had to do that. I tip my hat to you and want to buy you a drink!
Thank you ! I unfortunately don't drink but I'm sure Connor in the video would love that lol
@@worldwiderigging you should do the "buy me a coffee" thing.

Oh the opportunity will present itself for sure. Maybe one day we can rig together !
I hope!🤙@@worldwiderigging
I must be getting old because I don't understand young people anymore. Much respect for the teacher!
New age but hey we must keep up with the times lol
Respect guys. Well done. Dangerous and Hard work
Thank You!
Brings back memories.
Hahah oh lord I could never do this especially in the rain 😂 props to you my friend 👏
amazing teacher,. great man
Your a Good teacher !! Stay safe !
I appreciate that, much thanks!

good teacher!
Thank You so much
Tough gentlemen tough work!
Thank you !
love how he teaches. would love and would feel so safe to be working with him )
You are using 60mm MGO hooks I guess. I switched to petzl 110 and so useful on larger truss. Great video thanks for the upload
I totally agree man!
Gotta love stageset aye. Im a scaffolder but regularly get contacted to do them. The crews from stageset are gangster at what they do
Well thank you very much good sir.
Conner: Like hell it's not a race down. Seriously though, he did good. haha
incredible
Thank you!
very cool
awesome work ethic i hope you always have work
We are aiming to always stay busy!
I would really recomend a petzel harness, it has spots to hook the shark hooks on the chest and make it easier to have your hand free when climbing. otherwise great work! A little bit different from climbing in a wind turbine tower but the principle is the same !
homie talking bout anime while waiting for a crane climbing on top of a steel tower in rain
Nice work riggers :)
Thank you so much
Bro 8:45 jujustu Kaisen season 2 was fire asf broski
yessir
Sukuna was cooking
@@literallya442ndclonetroope5 facts!!!
I’m winded just watching the ascent!
Forget winded, I had to go change my underwear!!! Irv.
Lol it is definitely enduring
How tall were those upright beams that you were climbing on? 200ft tall or more?
These were about 90-100ft
Tickets to events should be more expensive just based on having watched this.
have you bought an event ticket lately
Oh don’t you worry… they’re fucking us on ticket prices.
lol oh they get expensive !
What's the protocol for lightning in this kind of situation?
I have 7 years of rigging experience Where can i apply ?
Go to Rhino Staging and look for the one in your state!
I love jujutsu kaisen!!
Are you only held in by one point of contact while going up and down?
You are tethered to the tower by one point yes and then you maintain three points of contact when climbing.
@@worldwiderigging appreciate the response!
4:53 that’s scary. Those welds look cold, no penetration
Hey you would know more than me honestly lol

Good to see you training him on the job but kid should have really been trained before hand on fall protection and rigging/signal person.
What are the ‘G2 Towers’ for?
Setting up concerts
what's a g2 tower?

WHY ARE THEY DOING THIS IN THE RAIN ? VERY SLIPPERY.
Happy i never have to do this in the rain for the most part also 50ft my max lol
Lol no different in the rain.
Is this animated?
I thought you were taking down G2 cellular towers... I was like...........
Bro f that😂
You get used to it ! lol
The instructor climbing then hooking on if he slips he will fall be below his lowest clip should always be under a clipped on hook when climbing
The instructor always had one clip in while climbing.
Yeah and he climbed above the hook then clipped on with his 2 nd clip if he always clipped on level or above and slipped he wouldn’t fall far but the way he done it having the clip below him then climbing with no clip above if he slipped he will have a grater fall I work in climbing and that is not how you clip on always be under a clip or level then clip the next one on as far as you can reach take one off climb level clip the next one on never climb above the clip he is doubling his fall rate doing it that way we all make mistakes but he training the other guy if he was getting tested for climbing in the uk he would fail
Como se llama la empresa
Rhino Staging
Wondering how much they get paid not safety at all
It varies but the pay is pretty good, most states start at about $25 an hr. We get a little more than that.
it is not possible to lift the 1st part each time and mount the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and so on underneath.
its absolutely possible. but one crane lift is faster than 10 crane lifts.
Less time efficient
This job pay well? Looking to change careers at 38 years old...
This job does pay well, depending on most places. Usually starting around 30/hr in some industries.
climbing a metal tower in a rain storm? Safety aint first on this jobsite huh?
Just a light shower, there was no lightning in sight. We check for lightning very regularly actually! Always keeping the guys safe!
@@worldwiderigging i assume your making over 100k doing this?
Where are the women that say they don’t need men.
Oh best believe they are climbing also! We have some of the most rigorous women in the industry!
@@worldwiderigging you need the most rigorous people in general for this crazy ass job lmao.
why wasnt he listening to you at 17:03?
I was thinking he thought he was talking to the crane guy
Wasn't sure if I was just telling him how it normally goes or if I was actually telling him right at that moment to look up. We all have our moments lol its a lot to take in.
crazy that they bring in zero trained (minimum wage) people at each location to assist with such dangerous tasks!
They get plenty of training before actually being on the job site, but nothing beats doing it for real for the first time!
Is connor kind of a re re or what?
Yea he seems out of it. Had to tell him to look up 5x. Wake up CONNNOR!
Seems like he’s in training. Not everyone knows everything from day one like you do…
Lol no Connor is just a jokester and wasn't aware at the time that I was being serious. He has rigged in other industries before, just first time in concerts.
Why I never rigged. It takes a special set of balls. Nice mentoring and great work!
Thank you and try it out, you may shock yourself with how well you handle the pressure!
I don't know if Connor is gonna make it 🤨.

Well do they want to no
