Tim Scott is an electrical worker whose specialty is wiring on high-rigging, hundreds of feet above the ground. After a fall that claimed the life of his brother, he suffers from vertigo and can no longer tolerate heights. Hired on a huge government construction project by his old pal, Rod, he takes a much lower paying job on the ground. Rod tries to shame Tim in front of his girlfriend, in an attempt to get him to overcome his fears, but Tim remains terrified. When Rod is trapped 15 stories above the earth, Tim will be forced to face his fears head-on, or watch his best friend die.
