That’s the tallest abandoned Russian structure and those guys have paid a visit there one frozen winter morning. It’s a shorter than Empire State Building, but not too much.

Only if you whisper sweet nothings into my rear, Tyrone. Please.
Awesome! Where is it? I like to climb.

58°26’25.67″N 42°37’30.33″E
creepy
Where is it? Please post coordinates so I can google earth it!
Same, I’m getting vertigo from some of those pictures, that’s great shots
нихера себе.
ЧТО ЭТО???
Зачем была построена такая огроменная вышка????
как зачем для бэйс джамперов))
а вообще я думаю это старая радиоантена на севере
[...] I’d hike it for 1000 EUR http://englishrussia.com/?p=2159: lacike: I’d hike it for 1000 EUR http://engli.. http://twitter.com/lacike/statuses/1047098308 [...]
I wonder if it is almost as tall as the radio whatever tower in Moscow.
And this structure does what? Why they build this?
This is some kind of TV tower near Ekaterinburg. They say that soon it will start working but now it is abandoned
That’s a damned nice climb. In the ice, especially.
LMAO!!!!!
Structure is useful for locating wandered livestock. I send wife up to look for lost goat. She only fall one times. Do not worry – she only fall from 20 metre, not apex. She only break arms and 1 leg. She back to work next day. I found lost goat as well.
What’s that? You actually allowed her time off???? Tsk, tsk. Someone is slipping here. Must be the ice. :p
Oh haha

Hi guys, I’ve decided I’m gonna come back here
awesome website. BTW what is this tower called? I wanna climb it now . . .
Damn nice stuff this is. AMAZING photographs again. Love your work. I love almost everything Russian. I so wish USSR had not collapsed. I am so happy that Russia is coming back to prominence with Mr. Vladmir Putin aka SuperMan in charge. I am an Indian but I just LOVE Russia and everything about it…all the best Russia!!!

I’d hit it
OMG to climb on this tower is similar with crazy action.
Holy shiy!!! it takes real balls to climb that abandoned rusting-aging—frozen-steel structure!!
Exactly! I would climb it myself – how exhilarating! :p

Wow. That is an amazing climb. Look at his climbing gear!
You can see his shoes in one of the shots, it gives a good indication of the rest of his gear.
Anyway, like I said. that is amazing! Fantastic Pictures!
this is tower in a russian siberian city Tomsk.
Fantastic photos and my compliments to the photographers bravery. Just looking at the photos made me nervous.
Does anyone remenber the one in Quebec that was hit by a plane? I think it had been the tallest radio tower in North America at least for a while, a private plane flew into it in fog and the plane and pilot’s body were stuck there. They finally demolished the tower (it was abandoned) because they weren’t sure it was safe to climb to retrieve the body. They blew up the base and I think one of the support wires on live TV and it refused to fall. I never did get to see it come down.
This mast is NOT the tallest abandonded structure in the world. The tallest abandonded structure in the world is the former OMEGA Tower at Paynesville, Liberia. It is 417 metres tall!

Srinham, according to the article you linked The tower in Libera was destroyed on May 10. One DAY before you posted.
“Access to the tower was unrestricted and it was possible to climb the abandoned mast until it was demolished years later on May 10, 2011″
