I saw that on mythbusters back in November. Thought it was neat, but definitely scary to someone who can't mount a stepladder without getting a case of the cold sweats.

Oooooohhh, you too?! I built a barn that had a peak of 12', I finished it, even shingled it, but my wife had to help me down each time. I have a weathervane for the garage (not that much higher) that's been in a box for 6 years.

I've been to the top of the World Trade Center even, but anything over 10 feet freaks me out.

Oh, and oh yeah, last time I was on a ladder I fell out of a tree with a running chain saw. I have many more falling\electrical\fire stories.
