For Rapid City native Kevin Schmidt, there’s nothing odd about climbing 1,500 feet in the air to change a light bulb. He’s climbed hundreds of towers during the past eight years, in dozens of states, through every season, sometimes in 60 mph winds.
Every six months this man in South Dakota climbs 457 meter communication tower to change the light bulb He’s paid $20,000 per climb.
