The part of the tour at the end when we put on hard hats and started climbing ladders had me thinking twice about the wisdom of the whole exercise :)
I've been thinking about this all afternoon and I just don't get it - how is a hardhat going to help you if you are on top of the highest thing for hundreds of miles?
The ladders were within the mast enclosure at the top of the tower. The ladders are punctuated at intervals by steel mesh floors. People were working up above. They might drop things. Small things that might make it through the mesh floors. All afternoon? :)
The only thing that is going to fall on you is a marauding Air New Zealand 747 on final approach.
