On Friday I got to spend the day working with Mantaray Abseil Ltd and Quantum Special Effects on top of the O2 Arena in London.
I last worked with Mantaray on the Olympics in 2012, so it was great to be back working with some old, and new faces.
Like a lot of rope access jobs, this job was pretty hard going and physical navigating the 100m towers above the arena itself to take down the pyrotechnics from the previous night’s opening scenes of the Brit Award Ceremony.
The O2, like so many other structures I’ve worked on over the years, will definitely go into my list of iconic buildings: the view across the Thames and the City is spectacular and the structure is a vast feat of engineering
