Maintenance is an ongoing affair at the Eiffel Tower. Bolts have to be tightened and it has to be painted - massive jobs. This sculpture pays homage to those men who risk their lives to take care of these things.

By the time the whole Towe is re-tightenend and re-painted, it could possibly be time to start all over again. It cannot be an easy job and yes, they are very brave.

Great picture and caption, I agree completely with you.
If you read the history of how the tower was constructed, it was a most amazing accomplishment.
Brave guy! :)
I think they have lots of work everyday to keep this beauty up!

What a great capture! Nice photo. I love the colors. Good composition, and you were lucky to see this :)
It would take a lot more than they get paid to get me to do that job.
I guess that's why it's still in good shape.
Like the Golden Gate Bridge without the orange paint.
Ooohm scary, great worker picture.
