REPLY:

The first tower I ever climbed was an HDBX48 and I remember it well.
Being a total newbie at tower climbing, about halfway up I thought I
was going to die. I didn't know how exactly, whether I would fall off
or the tower would fall over or what, but I was sure this was going to
be my last few minutes on earth. 

Needless to say, nothing happened.  I have climbed many towers since,
including some much taller ones but that first time was unforgettable.
