...the ladder gives out before you do.
It was really old and rickety. No, really.
p.s. It came with the house.

That's hilarious! You guys really are hard core. ;) (Hope no one was on it when it failed!)

Never trust anything a PO leaves behind. I got some old stuff from the PO too that is useless (like a ladder missing some rungs).
Hopefully no one was hurt when the ladder gave out.
By the way, there is a four-foot rolling steel scaffold that the evil empire sells for $100.

I bought it someplace else, but it's way easier to work with than a ladder (and if folds up) and it costs about what you would pay for a decent ladder.

We have a ladder like that- wobbly with a capital W. It's funny how one just keeps using it knowing it's dangerous- we do use ours with caution though and ours is a smaller stepladder but still would provide a bad fall and then if one was holding a hammer or God forbid power tool. Hmmm...maybe we should toss it...
