My neighbor fell off a ladder removing a limb that was rubbing his roof .
The limb he cut pulled him off the ladder , in a temp cast , will see a ortho specialist on monday .

Feel bad for him , good guy , first responder .
Probably out of work for a while .

Other neighbor said " Trump knocked him off the ladder , I saw it ."

For a nano-second I laughed.

Then I remembered how unpredictable felling trees and cutting limbs from a tree can be.


As a retired first responder; part of the reason I laughed is because of the irony of your neighbor being a first responder (having an accident).
 
Fuck ladders and trees. If we can't trim them with the pole saw or the lift they get trimmed right at the bottom

How long till people get that ladders and tree trimming don't mix. He's lucky it wasn't worse.

Yeah , we talked about that , head injuries ect.....
Won't be a cheap ass no mo , hire other people for Trump to knock off the ladder.

Doin' work that you are not all that familiar with no matter the face value , should be left to folks that do it on a daily basis .

At least he had a good sense of humor about it (the Trump thing)

I'm a retired Electrician , PE ,EE , and Master Electrical License Holder , seen some shit . Some trades are not a hobbie .

The day before my first day of second grade...in a brand new school...I fell trying to swing on the cross bar of our swing set in Indiana. I broke both wrists at the same time. Boy was that embarrassing and bring the suck!!!

Pffft working from the ground like a sucker, branches can land on you causing serious injury.

Hard to 1 up the chopper o death, but I actually ran one of these :flipoff2:​​​​​​

For like 5 mins, it was interesting for sure.

They also had some of these, which I never got a chance to run, but were definitely interesting.
