About 180 feet. There are aerial telescopic boom lifts that can reach a little higher than that, I think. 2 of the titans in the man lift category are Genie and JIS I once worked from the platform of a Genie at 120 ft up. and used to own 5 50ft Scissors lifts. the ratings on telescopic boom lifts are much different than hydraulic cranes they are designed to lift their rated capacity at an unrestricted extension or elevation and will not lift or lower a pound more than capacity. If you have it at full extension and load it to it's max platform rating, you can lower it to horizontal without retracting. Scarry but safe.
