I'm a contractor and I've setup ladders in that same exact way to cut paint in hallway ceilings. That task could be done differently, for sure, but not faster and with very little additional benefit. Getting over the railing and on that ladder is the only thing he has to worry about. The ladder itself will not move unless the railing or the wall fall down first.

For those who want to know how to make that process safer, lay an extension ladder across the opening, one end resting on top step and another on opposite side of that landing. It'll keep you from falling down and could be used as a walking platform if needed.

Is very snow-broth;
One who never feels
The wanton stings and
Motions of the sense



I'm a painter and I would use a brush on a pole to cut in, just takes a steady hand.

Almost every paint roller I have used has threads on the bottom that will fit just about any broom handle out there.

I don't see how that's relevant.

Wait, you don't have ladder levellers?






Or even adjustable ladders?




Because any of these things comes across as a hell of a lot safer to be using day in day out.

I have most of those. But sometimes it's not worth the time it takes to load it on a truck, carry into the house and then setup just to cut in 4-5' of ceiling corner that's our of reach. Not to mention that in a narrow stairwell, extension ladder on lower steps, creates a very very sharp angle.

I also have an extendable platform that allows me to turn that stair opening into a solid surface. Then I can just stand on a short step ladder or stilts. But it spends most of it's time in the garage, next to 14' a-frame, 42' extension and other oddball poo poo, while me and my guys do what you see in the above picture.

There is some thing oddly specific about it though. I can watch videos of car accidents and other dangerous situations and it doesn't have the same reaction.

I love how obvious it is what happened since all the beer rushes onto the girl's jacket.

The guy just threw his glass into hers way too loving hard and there may have been a little crack in his glass so it just exploded.
