Did the guy go absolutely and irreversibly bat-shit crazy?Lighthouse keeper sounds like a cool job.although having seen The lighthouse I'm not so sure. Good film though. Would recommend. Anyone want to hazard a guess about what happens at end?
I heard or read somehwere that they had to stop making this a one man job, due to the high risk of the solitude driving them crazy over time.. I think there were issues even with teams of 2. I think there's a horror film or book about a team of 2, where one of them dies, and the other goes completely stark staring mad.
Is that the film you're talking about?
I was kind of joking about wanting to do such a job, as although I think I'd be fine for months at a time, I too might become very strange (even more so than usual) in time, if not going bat shit crazy.
I think these things are mostly all automated by now anyway. No humans needed.
But there are jobs like monitoring the wildlife on remote islands, but I think these sort of jobs end up going to married couples, that have some kind of relevant degrees and contacts usually.
