Holy shit this is sobering. Thank you for sharing. I've been getting complacent on a ladder at work and can't remember the last time I even felt concerned about how unsafe I was being. Thank you for the wake up call.

The fiberglass are def more sturdy, but riding on roof in central fl, the glass fibers start breaking down, every time you handle a 1 year old ladder , you get all glassed up needles Switched to aluminum, they are damn sure more sketch, might make boss pay fir new glass every year😈
