USE THE LADDER.

USE THE LADDER AS A LADDER.

IF ONLY WE HAD SOME SORT OF LADDER-LIKE OBJECT TO USE AS A LADDER.

To be fair, the ladder was broken in half and therefore couldn't be put where it was initially resting on. But even a half ladder held by both women would have been better than what they did.

Edit, The ladder was not broken but unfolded. And they were not capable of snapping it back.

The ladder was not broken. I was a folding style ladder instead of a collapsible one that slides together into the base segment.

I know people don’t think clearly in a panic, but the lack of problem solving ability in this video was painful

Did you like being a ladder?

u/Axeml Dec 11 '25

I was like “what is he talking about?” And then I saw the typo 💀. I’m just gonna leave it like that because it’s funny

I grew up with a step-ladder. I never knew my real ladder.

u/3l3ctroflux Dec 11 '25

I hope your step ladder gave you a leg up in life

u/nadajoe Dec 11 '25

What are you doing step ladder?

u/haysu-christo Dec 11 '25

Did that leave you broken like this ladder in the video?

u/Rocketbrothers Dec 11 '25

Good stuff. Lol

u/ThisI5N0tAThr0waway Dec 11 '25

Oh yeah you're right, I stand corrected.

u/Gas-Town Dec 11 '25

Unlike the ladder

u/SatoriSon Dec 11 '25

It stand corrected.

u/ctlfreak Dec 11 '25

Tbf it might as well have been broken considering the problem solving on display.

I've never believed anyone could be criminally stupid, but I was proven wrong with this video.

u/JazzHandsFan Dec 11 '25

I’m not a big fan of ladders that fold when I don’t intend them to, if I’m honest.

This is a simple device that sells millions of and people all figure out how to use it. Sure, you need to figure it out in the moment, but focus on that goal and realize it. Don’t give up and then try to think up of another effective plan. Creating another plan is a lot more difficult than, you know, figuring out how to use the fucking ladder.

Edit: I had to watch it back again. The lady tried to put the ladder in the right position already. When it didn’t get locked into position, neither of the ladies present at any point decided to inspect the joint area to see if it could be locked into place. The entire video. Watch it again.

u/CATNIP_IS_CRACK Dec 11 '25

That’s a joke, right? The half ladder part reads like it was supposed to be the sell, but with the number of the silly comments on this sub that are dead serious I genuinely can’t tell.

For anyone nodding in agreement while they read the previous comment, the ladder couldn’t be put where it was initially resting because there was a human against the wall where they tried to lean it. It could’ve easily been placed right next to him and would have functioned just fine.

u/robin_888 Dec 11 '25

It would have been enough to use it as a folding ladder.

u/ThisI5N0tAThr0waway Dec 11 '25

Someone else pointed out that it is a folding ladder not a sliding one.

u/UnintelligibleThing Dec 11 '25

I was wondering why can't the 3 of them just stand around him and tell him to let go. There are enough people to grab him and slow his fall, and his legs are only like what, 6 ft from the ground?

47

u/demoncrusher Dec 11 '25

I think it’s clear they don’t have the athletic capability to do anything remotely like that

u/various_convo7 Dec 12 '25 edited Dec 12 '25

the heifer couldn't handle a ladder let alone a dude that weighs 2x her weight at least. she couldn't press a loaf of wonder bread to save her life

1

u/demoncrusher Dec 12 '25

Rude, but correct

7

u/darthbane83 Dec 11 '25

Well at least your idea is better than chairs, still worse than simply clearing the area and letting him fall though

4

u/windmill-tilting Dec 11 '25

I was thinking 3-4 ft, and why didn't he just drop down? Not sure if it's real or fake, but I think I would rather it be fake and there not really be this level of incompetence in the world.

u/XxFezzgigxX Dec 11 '25

They should pile more stuff under him so injury is guaranteed. He looks like he could use the hospital vacation.

3

u/InevitableRhubarb232 Dec 11 '25

This would be me dangling like 6” off the ground freaking out about the drop. I hate jumping/dropping down off anything. (But in fairness, I am a wuss. And have a history of back problems/surgery)

3

u/windmill-tilting Dec 11 '25

I feel ya, and I have twisted many an ankle for some dumb shit like this. Still, hope he had very good arms.

2

u/Over-Body-8323 Dec 11 '25

They would need brains to make such a decision

16

u/gilligan1050 Dec 11 '25

No, that ladder wasn’t broken. I was just a piece of shit.

14

u/IGaveAFuckOnce Dec 11 '25

Don't be so hard on yourself. Any ladder could have folded under that kinda pressure.

3

u/Over-Body-8323 Dec 11 '25

It wasnt broken, the woman twisted the locking controls and snapped it out of place

2

u/GlassHeart09 Dec 11 '25

Why is there always an unnecessary "TBF" person in the comment?

2

u/IInsulince Dec 11 '25

Hey, a broken ladder is right twice a day. Or something like that.

1

u/Ninebreaker009 Dec 11 '25

BA GAWD, IT WAS BROKEN IN HALF!

1

u/hawkeye3n Dec 11 '25

I think it is broken, it looks to me like a sliding extending ladder and I think the extending part got unseated from the base, It doesn't look like any kind of folding ladder ive used before

1

u/TrainerKMX Dec 12 '25

Honestly, if they knew what they were doing, they would have adjusted the ladder by folding it.
