a sure fire way to drop the pounds people!

A man in Tulsa who climbed a TV tower five days ago continues to rebuff police efforts to come down. The 25-year-old has not taken food or water since Friday, the day after he climbed the Clear Channel communications tower. He also has a history of mental illness, reports the Tulsa World. Police say they won't try to force him down but are getting worried given the 100-degree heat, notes AP.

"There really isn't a way to put up any type of netting in case he falls," says a city officer. "It truly is a waiting game."
