Unless he is using 5 pieces I don’t know why he wouldn’t stick those . If he does have to ladder them … The ladder is In the right place Of course wfp would be best not everyone has one though

All good points. I’m telling you if you can add this skill to your arsenal, you will be just that much more of an artist. Baby steps. Don’t just throw your 40’ up and start bouncing up. Try it non the thick commercial glass first. Or use WFP. Much safer.

I have a piece of thin board, maybe 3/8 inch thick that I installed U bolts (muffler clamps for those who remember such things) in and then covered the outside with rubber backed, outdoor carpet. I use that when the standoffs won’t work and I need to put up directly on the glass or frame
I always hear that the glass is rated to hold one man’s weight, but I also saw a guy’s foot and almost his whole body crash through a skylight 5 stories up that was supposed to hold his weight (luckily someone was there to grab him on the roof before the rest of him fell through). I just don’t feel comfortable doing it anyway.
If I were the guy in the picture I would’ve used an extension pole, no question.
I’m trying to remember a time when I had to actually rest a ladder on glass.
I honestly can’t remember a single time.
I’ll never say “never.” But I [B]also[/B] can’t see myself saying…
-“I think I’ll lay my ladders on this glass, what’s the worst that could happen?”
In the case of the pictured move.
Even if for some reason you couldn’t pole to the bottom, you could still bring it down to a manageable level.
And get the bottom half from ladders.
I would love to know how many pieces he is using. If it’s 3-4 pieces he is a bone head . Sorry cause then he should of just sticked them. From the looks of the flex ( none) I would say Ya … It’s 3 maybe 4.
