Extreme sports I guess!We were a Design and Build company for Telecommunications... TV to be specific. We updated the Solid Gold soundstage to handle all the TV electronics.
We got a contract for NBC sports to build production Trailers for Sporting events... one enginnerering and one production trailer. We had cut the time from one year to six months.
They sent an engineering team from New york to supervise and observe and make suggestions. The two of them were a hoot. We dressed em up in cowboy outfits and took em country and western dancing....
One of them had won an emmy because he was part of a mountain climbing team that was going up mount everest. He designed a camera housing for protecting the camera.
He lived in Manhattan. He had a fight with his wife tied off a rope and repelled twenty stories down to the road.... where he was promptly arrested...
The build went famously.... I even got to be a camera grip.
