Cobber on the roof
Reportedly from Australia, our latest Death Wish submission shows a man using a step ladder in a sloping roof to reach an antenna.
We have very few facts on this one and it looks as though he is defying gravity, surely no one is quite this stupid? He has climbed up on to the tin roof with a longer ladder – one assumes step ladder in hand – and then managed to perch it on the sloping roof. The chances of this ending well were minimal - although one assumes he lived to do it all again the next time the TV reception was poor?
Please someone tell us that this did not really happen and that it is an optical illusion or that is has been photoshopped?

Man on a hot tin roof
Definitely one for the Death Wish series.
I seem to remember another Australian chap who went onto his roof to adjust his TV aerial - Rod Hull - That ended badly for him too !
