Spoiler alert he doesn't make it to the top.

there go 5 minutes of my valuable, action-packed life.

[–]mrfishdance[!] 3 points4 points ago

After 15 minutes, he finally gets to the top. Wait for it!

[–]SwagLadnTheBinary0s 2 points3 points ago

I'd recommend reposting to /r/trees for maximum trolling

[–]gogogadgetschlong[S] 1 point2 points ago

I'm fairly new to reddit, and i'm not sure exactly what /r/trees is all about. So i will keep well away until such time as i do. Thanks anyway.

Context?

[–]need2reddit 1 point2 points ago

I waited entirely too long to find out if he made it to the top or not...

[–]jaszmunch 1 point2 points ago

When does he make it to the top?!?

[–]_spranger_ 0 points1 point ago

I noticed after the second time he didn't rest the ladder on anything

[–]LastOneStanding 7 points8 points ago

I thought there might have been hooks or something at the top

[–]Itsamepudgio 1 point2 points ago

That's what I'm thinking. We have ladders at my fire station with hooks at the top of them for getting on to roofs. So I would put my money on it being a roof ladder

[–]FlyerAce128 0 points1 point ago

Close to a roof ladder. It's actually a Pompier ladder. They were used in areas where aerials couldn't access due to the height of a structure. So the firefighter would basically scale the outside of the building with that ladder to get where he needed. Pretty crazy, I think I'll stick with extension ladders and our ladder truck.

[–]Itsamepudgio 1 point2 points ago

Imagine doing that in full bunker gear with an air pack and the irons strapped on you... yeah fuck that Ill take the ladder truck any day. lol
