A scary scene was caught on tape near downtown Tulsa Wednesday afternoon.

The Tulsa Fire Department rushed into action when a man was spotted dangling from a billboard near I-244 west of Utica.

Officials say the worker slipped and fell about 10 feet while he was trying to do some work. Luckily, he was wearing his harness, so he just had to hang around until he was rescued.
