A lady I work with husband died falling from a 8’ step ladder. It tilted sideways and when he fell he landed on the ladder in such a way that it collapsed his lungs. I think of that every time I’m on a step ladder. I don’t fear ladders or high places but I always make sure they are secured in place really well. For my job I had to take a class that including instructions for tying off a ladder so that came in helpful. They can be dangerous.
