Emergency high rise fire escape.

I had to dig out some posts that supported a cubic, shed-type structure. I had no idea that anybody ever used that much concrete in a post hole. Of the four posts, two of them had been set in concrete that was equal in volume to a sphere three feet in diameter. The structure used to have a fiberglass satelite dish on it, one of those 6-foot jobbers that catch a lot of wind.

 

Anyway, after hours of digging I managed to get a webbing harness around the damn thing, then attached a chain to a "come-along" and a tree. Where the chain ran out of the pit, I padded the lip with an ice axe. When I finally got this thing to the surface, I couldn't roll it without levering it with a digging bar!

 

Anybody want to buy an ice axe? I suspect it could withstand the strength test where the fat ranger leans it against a boulder and jumps on it.
