I think it was last summer - it was, like, a 98 degree day - a guy climbed a television tower in Tulsa and stayed there for what seemed like ever, but it was really probably a day. Finally, TPD had their best negotiator (I think he had just retired but came back to get this fellow down) and raised him up in the bed of some sort of mammoth forklift. Man - it went back and forth and back and forth, the guy on the tower kept climbing from rung to rung, about slipping and falling at least once, and FINALLY the brave TPD guy coaxed him (with cold soda pop, ice, cold towels, etc. etc.) close enough to where he was, and was able to grab him and haul him aboard. Tense stuff, great work by the negotiator, who, after all, was way the heck up in the air on a platform with one side open, attempting to get a mentally disturbed guy off a tower.
