Check out our Top 10 Ladders and scaffolding fails below, by both so-called ‘professionals’ and DIY enthusiasts. There is so much wrong with these images, they could literally pass the bucket. Health and safety is a thing, people. Be careful.
These are also not for the faint-hearted.
This scaffold is perfectly balanced, on the edge of a concrete block, on an incline.. oh and the scaffold is the type that can be rolled around, so has a wheel. Yikes!
This setup of quick scaffolding is so secure. What could go wrong?
This man has utilised two old chairs, a board and a stubby ladder. Oh and to top it off – he is on the top rung, leaning.
These two appear to be repairing some roofing. One little shift in the top guy’s weight will bring the whole thing down.
These two are repairing some roofing, they are using a tower lift with a ladder coming out the top.
This guy is simply balancing on the feet of the ladder with no shoes. Good luck getting down!
These two have decided to use a quick frame scaffold, and place on-top a ladder. So many things can go wrong here…
This guy has decided to tie together a number of long ladders to make a makeshift scaffold – so unsafe.
This idiot is painting a window frame from the outside, no harness, no ladder and scaffolding. Only three floors to the ground.
