One of the worst

A reader in the UK sent us this photo of two men working on a ladder earlier this week which has to be one of the worst examples of a dangerous practice we have every covered?

Two men up a long ladder.. were working near the top

The two are descending the long ladder (around eight or nine metres) they had both been at the top, the lower man was holding a 33 kg Propane cylinder while the man on top was using the attached blow torch attached with short hoses to the cylinder.

A closer look shows the gas cylinder

The two were working somewhere in the north of England on Monday.

Amazingly the two appeared to have survived the suicide mission to live another day.
