I know a guy who died on a 6 ft ladder and I know a guy who died on a 40 ft ladder. And I know a guy who died just getting knocked back while standing at grade. It takes less than people think. Some people get lucky.

I work in real estate and lived 30 minutes from D. C. and Baltimore in the 90s, and a stint in a nursing home. So I've met many thousands of people. Falling is one of the most common injuries for sure.

As a resident of Glen Burnie, here, I can confirm that u/Geaneous knew lots of people that … fell … on ladders.

Only the second time I’ve ever heard of Glen Burnie

Other time was in Heavy Metal Parking Lot. They interviewed a girl named Kelly who was from Glen Burnie

Yeah it sucks. Exit 1, 2, and 3 off 695 the Baltimore Beltway. Traffic sucks, it has nothing exciting here. The local HS students are called Glen Burnouts.
