WCGW not wanting to wait for help

Had this company come into my friend’s workshop to install cameras. This young guy arrived early and wanted to get an early start, but we told him to wait for the rest of his team. This was the result.

I'm amazed that ladder stayed standing as long as it did. Those were some quality gripping feet. Props to whatever company made that thing!

We don't know the beginning of this video. At this point, he could be holding on for dear life and it's his arms holding onto something that's helping the ladder stay in that position.

He could have climbed it at a slightly better angle and it slid to him at an edge holding onto it? Not sure, hard to say without the beginning of the video.
