I had to go do some work on a man lift yesterday and today. I was using the small man lift and some other Veco guys were using the big one. The big one is called a “Condor 170 S” and it can go up to 170 feet in the air. The smaller blue one that I used can only reach 65 to 70 feet but that’s high enough to make my truck look pretty small with it extended to its max height.
Wile I was working yesterday the facility operator shut us down and told us we had to leave because the plant had to flare of some excess gas. They flare all the time and it’s no big thing but this time they were roaring. It sounded like I was standing right next to a jet airplane at full throttle and I was around a half of a mile away. The flames were shooting well over 300 feet in the air. It’s not only loud but it shakes the ground.

That's really cool. I couldn't imagine going up even higher than what you already were!!! I think it would be so cool to go there and see those huge flames!!!
