4 weeks ago I had to crawl through a 42" pipe with sulfuric acid laying on the bottom in order to give the engineer some ultrasonic readings on the thickness of the piping. Steam/mud drums on boilers are a personal favourite. Went into one last summer. The manway was so small, I had to take everything out of my pockets to get in. Cell phone, pens, my belt, flashlight, small tools, everything had to come off. Had to exhale all from my lungs to make it through.

Wasn't my turn, but yesterday two of our guys had to do inspection on a column in the refinery 200 ft in the air from a crane supported man basket. We do stuff like that on a regular basis.
