    If the guy doing the painting loses his balance, they are both going off the ledge
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
    When I have to paint I use KBS products

    Sooo when the guy wearing red falls, does the guy in gray get pulled off too, or does HE let go of the rope!

    At least they didn't tie the rope around the guy's neck like they did in some of the other ones like this...

    Indeed.

    If you fall from a height of 10 feet (i.e., about one story) you'll be traveling 17.25 mph when you hit the pavement.
