    Construction worker jumping between steel frame sections - GIF

    Construction worker jumping between steel frame sections. I like the irony of him doing this while wearing a hardhat, safety vest, and unattached safety harness.

    I think he works on the principle that there is plenty to grab onto on the way down. People who spend their lives working on scaffolding tend to become a bit (or in this case a lot) blasé about the dangers.

    My only concern is that he trip over his unused, unbuckled fall protection... At least he's wearing it!
