Smart window cleaners doing a job like this use the carbon fibre extension poles along with de-ionising water filters and their feet never leave the ground.

Not available in Long Beach [either one]...

Ha, ha, ha, exactly what i see. Some do really silly stuff for the coin...better than drugs I guess, but how many have to engage an accident when it happens? As prevoiusly posted "Why?". We are bombarded by scammers daily, trying to trick us out of hard earned resources.

Another ladder safety gem. Captioned as Romania.

Well, the triangulation is good plus under lateral tension; can't vouch for the insulation. Maybe the crew is on break?

[ranald]

I think I would take the lonnnng cut home around the block: certainly wouldn't park neat it.

looks like a stairway to heaven.

well it does keep the wires from falling further, who ever put it in place was lucky they were not a path to ground.

Yep. Very lucky. Path to ground or path into ground? I guess that is a "no parking" sign that helps counter balance the wires.ha ha.

Aside=The old days saw timber/wood/lumber ladders as better insulators. I have a "Mote" ladder of my grandfathers: the makers mark has a Brisbane phone number of 4 digits. I remember 6 and 7 and then 8 digit numbers. The mote ladder does have a steel pulley & some bolts.
