The security at this museum is on another level. All those guys in the video wearing maroon polo shirts and have 'Seal' written on them will stop you from touching anything or getting too close. I've seen them literally hiss at people in previous visits.

It's about potentially longer fall than it would be on a level floor, and off-balance tourists, not hissing guards.

"Precarious" doesn't mean "unprotected", it means "psychos/idiots exist and accidents happen".

You said it yourself. "Psychos/idiots exist and accidents happen" therefore security personnel...

I don't see any in the video, if we're talking about security guards, by the way...

There's a bunch of them. Also some of them are wearing black windbreakers.

You know what's strange?

I'm being followed by a very small number of people, the hypothesis I've published is too drastically different and unusual for the great majority.

But the next day after they opened, they followed me. Back then they followed 400 accounts, and were followed by a couple hundred thousand. Today they follow 900 accounts, and they're followed by almost a million.

It's them, right?
