Mr T Some very wonderful pictures amongst this little lot. The one showing the people in the rigging shows how things have changed over the years.mall tied in now with safety belts. Was watching one of those tony Robinson worst jobs in history programmes the other week and he had to climb the rigging on a ship.He must have been wearing some sort of head camera but the view he was getting was really scary - and that was with the ship not rolling about at sea. Some brave people in times gone by Happy Modelling
