I'm pretty sure a few decades ago 50+ yearold men falling off a ladder whilst trying to fix the TV antenna was a pretty common cause for hospital visits

I remember reading my dad's Viz magazine and they used to always take the piss out of his death. The mental image I have is him going skidding off and trying to grab onto something with that stupid bird for a hand still, haha.

Curious how this went down with US audiences. He got rolling with Richard Pryor after. Prior was recovering from setting himself on fire at the time.

I hate them and refuse to go up them never mind work off them, way I see it law of averages says more times you go up the higher your chance gets of falling, the lad who cleans my windows was once cleaning an upstairs window and ladder slipped and he smashed all his front teeth out on the downstairs window cill, every window cleaner I know has fell off at some point. Fuck ladders

I don't even like going up the 1st three steps on a step ladder to clean out my gutters.  Definitely have a fear of falling.
