    Imagine trying to kick that thing up into position. I have trouble with 30 foot ladders as it is.

    Insane. I keep hoping this is some video trickery but am afraid it's real. The guy makes a good case for wearing pants with little to no restrictions in them.

    Is that rope to the roof what's actually bearing his weight?

    if you look real close, you can see they tied all the segments together, and pulled it up from the roof. the rope is actually holding it up.

    I've seen worse - I've seen shipyard workers hang tie a ladder over the side of a ship, climb down it carrying another ladder and tie it to the bottom, then do it again. This is to a ship in drydock.

    That guy obviously trusts the guys he works with. Especially the one on the roof tending his lifeline.
