Tower, as in radio or cellphone antenna towers.

I enjoyed watching this video of a worker climbing a 1700+ foot tall tower
which was referred to as a "guided tower". It was sent to me by our
worker's comp insurer who stated that tower climbing was the most
dangerous job in America.

I hadn't theard that term "guided tower" before and was not successful in
finding a definition through search engines or on Wiki.

Maybe it just means a tower with guy wires, but I'd expect that to be
called a "guyed tower". So, maybe it means free standing without guy
wires?

Thanks guys,

Jeff

Either an error in pronunciation, or in hearing. It is "guyed" tower.
Meaning it is stabilized by "guy wires". Steel cables to hold it up in the
wind.
