He was probably thinking how lucky he was that truss didnt fall on his head. Until that brace kicked the ladder out from under him. I got a laugh out of that one

If someone was filming, this was regarded as some kind of epic handyman project. Or for his wildly attractive landlord.
"Here I am, up here with belt bag full of screws, cordless drill and little sense".
Can't see how he'd get atop to anchor 1st truss to plate just to get started. For that matter, how did that clumsy intermediate frame get in place?
"There I go"!
Inadequate everything: Planning, Ladder, Ladder Footing, Fall Protection, Workmen's Insurance. At least he fell inside; avoiding coup de grace run over by a bus.
I don't want to know at what height this occurred.

one at a time they might have made it!

Still stupid but probable fun just to try.

problem was they just didn't have any grip strength. Plus it would have been far safer to climb inside of the bucket 1 at a time.

With the ladder a hoist video....You could see it wouldn't work from the start... Basic levers... with the fulcrum where his hands and the load at the top with about a 2:1 advantage.... even with the bottom fixed he'd neverhold it. Should have had the ladder vertical, preferably tied on.

you would think that they would have at least started with the the ladder vertical, some people ...

I like this guy's reaction after he screws up:

1. Give yourself a round of applause.
2. Put your hands on your hips.
3. Look up at the sky.

We've all done it!

Well, the skyward glance is usually first...for me anyway.
