Air 3 Hanging off the bridge

[Coconut Island Drones]

Something a bit different. I passed under the Friarton bridge in Perthshire, Scotland and seen the rope access guys doing their job so asked if they'd be ok with me filming them doing their stuff and they were. Not for the faint of heart or those with any sort of fear of heights. There isn't any amount of money you could pay me to do this. Definetly a job for a special breed of person. I had sweaty palms just watching them, hope you enjoy the video.

I sure do hope you asked or let the guys know that you were going to do fly your drone around them. Distraction could be the very thing that would get one of them killed

There's not a single chance I'd do it either lol.

There were other guys who had just come down from the other side of the bridge and I asked them so they radio'd the guys still up there and they were happy for me to fly. I explained I wouldn't get too close to them and would use the zoom lens for close up shots. If they weren't happy or comfortable with me doing it then I wouldn't have done it.
