Good morning everyone! Helped my dad do his stuff around his house/t yard yesterday was ALOT of work, even managed to fall off a ladder about 12-13 ft up, good thing Iām agile and spider man sprung off the tree or I might have been in a bad spot! 
anyways being in the sun all day in shorts and a t-shirt got me my first sun burn of the year as well as took sooo much out of me, when I got home last night, I passed out almost instantly (well after a big fatty) slept almost 10 hours! Thats unheard of!
Hope your weekends are off to a great start.

welcome back, man.
Major oof on the ladder. I used to be afraid of heights and especially ladders. The hieghts things is another story. I had worked for a place and we weāre running cat 5 in an old building, just tall ceilings. Well dude was on the ladder drilling anchors into the wall. Some ass**** put drywall over the concrete support, when he hit it, the whole ladder tipped and he slammed to the ground. He got the air knocked out of him(shitty feeling but it doesnt kill you lol). Oddly after watching that, I can scrabble up ladders no problem now.
Anyways, long story. Iām happy to hear you didnāt get injured. Now you just have to stave off sunburn, whih i think is worse that a small fall 
Enjoy your shower hahah

Bastard! 
I didnāt think about that , YET!
Ironically itās not my first fall, when I had a small painting business this guy asked me to change a couple windows for him while there, sure I can handle that. Got to the last window install, and itās a big ass reinforced glass window. Iām like how TF am I gonna do this solo ? (Itās on the third story, way up) so I rig up a pulley system to get it up with carabiners etc. as Iām up there making sure everything is copacetic and heās inside listening as I tell him to move it into position, well he pushes the top out, it flops forward, launching me backwards falling and Iām picturing in my head dying as I canāt turn around mid air, somehow I fell into one of those huge soft spruce trees, it breaks my fall like a soft bed and only injury I got was a stick through my bicep. Thank God. And Iāve had a few others too. I can still run up and down one like a maniac but Iām cautious af when at height.

Bahaha I know , itās funny I have little pieces of tape on all the cameras inside, all the microphones are off unless need be. I bought them long ago and honestly donāt think I would now, but I spent a small fortune and gave an absolutely psychotic neighbor so I keep em up as a safety precaution for a- all my shit and b- to catch her and her husbands antics

Good morning everybody. Ladders make me cringe anymore. I think about a year ago I had to stretch out a 40 footer inside this huge church to get to sections of the walls. I scrambled about half way up that thing then I started getting the jitters and full on shakes. The ladder was flexing hella hard and bouncing off the wall. I slid right back down that sum bitch and just did a good enough paint job.

Morning guys! @Indicana_Jones lol Mann thatās the part that let me know when I was young and doing siding over the summer with a friends dad that I wasnāt built for heights like that. Feeling that bounce is super unnerving!

This was me doing wainscotting here on a historical building ontop of Clifton hill, 37 ft up, while tourists walk past the ladder by the hundreds taking pics, asking me stuff etc. I shimmy up that bitch but once up 3/4 the ladder folds in a bit in the centre put my heart in my throat, then some guys kid NO JOKE kicks the ladder , just lightly but enough to be like screw this, I did the whole thing upside down leaning over the edge. Looks like absolute shit from up there but from the ground ā¦ā¦ great when he said good job and handed me the cash , I turned down free beer and pizza and ran for the hills 
That little shit , I still canāt believe he kicked my ladder
