Cleaners prepare to clean windows outside the 101st floor of the Shanghai World Financial Center March 26, 2012. More than 30 workers on the window-cleaning team of the skyscraper work in pairs every day. The cleaners have to obtain a license for high-rise operations and must not have high blood pressure or a fear of heights. They are not allowed items which could fall, such as cell phones or wristwatches, and must stop working in heavy winds.

I don't mind being up that high ....
As long as there is a mountain underneath me ....
Why are they wearing hard hats? Nothing's going to drop on them the hats won't protect them from a fall from that height. I wondered the same thing about WWII Kamakaze pilots wearing helmets.
