Video | South Korea’s skyscraper window cleaner pushes past fear of heights

A skyscraper window cleaner in South Korea has spent nearly 30 years overcoming his fear of heights to keep buildings like the towering 555-metre (1,820-foot) Lotte World Tower gleaming.

Despite the challenges posed by wind, rain and snow, Seo Seung-ho and his team of seven cleaners work to give the building a full once-over each year.

Seo says he finds his job rewarding, as he takes pride in seeing the magnificent Seoul skyline from above while maintaining the iconic structure.
