ss.jpgSIOUX FALLS, S.D. — 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. It's part of the job at Sioux Falls Tower and Communications.

For the rest of the world, Schmidt's vertigo-inducing workday is anything but normal.

"Some of my friends can't believe I do it," Schmidt said. "They get scared on top of their house."

Perhaps that explains why a stunningly crisp video of Schmidt ascending an aging TV tower near Salem
last fall has gone viral, attracting more than 1.3 million hits on YouTube.

"I didn't expect it would get this big," Schmidt said.

Neither did Todd Thorin, a co-worker of Schmidt's at Sioux Falls Tower
who shoots drone footage on the side for a start-up venture called Prairie Aerial.

He's filmed dozens of videos since founding the company last year,
but none has nabbed as much attention as Schmidt's 1,500-foot climb.
Facebook links from a HAM radio website helped spark the Internet's interest this week It passed a million views
Wednesday and was at 1,325,325 Sunday night, with most of those views coming since Monday.

The video represents the highest he'd ever sent his drone, which carries a GoPro camera with a custom lens.
