I love these hair-raising ladder threads. I hope people post more pictures.
I know a lot of people here have already seen this one, but here it is for those who haven't.

Classics are never old. I'd feel safer shinnying up the pole than using that ladder.
Here is another:

not that I haven't done a couple hairy setups myself, but that one makes my nuts want to crawl up behind my ears and hide.

That last one reminds me of a story I read - I think here at BT.Foggy memory says it was Boss Hog's father, but may well be wrong -Anyways, It seems he had to trim off a limb that was up just a bit higher than his extension ladder would reach, so you put the ladder butt in the bucket of the tractor and got it up high enough to rest on the limb. on the part he would be saving, not the cutting off part.So far so good...But once the chainsaw had freed the good part from the weight of the cutoff, that limb went higher up. He was able to let go the chainsaw, and hold the limb with one hand, and the top ladder rung with another to keep the ladder from toppling, while screaming bloody murder for his wife inside to come start the tractor and lift the bucket higher. Eventually, she came to his rescue.
