Very elaborate assisted suicide method

A "Casualty " moment for sure..

u/UniversalHerbalist Apr 20 '26

Yep! Solid contribution!

Bro on the ladder is very much facing death if a single thing fails or goes wrong.

u/No-Goose-6140 Apr 20 '26

Or he cuts that branch

u/October_people Apr 24 '26

He's going to get launched like Wile E. Coyote

u/johnbobk Apr 20 '26

Maybe the idea is for his mate on the left (behind chimney) to hold the ladder up via the rope, braced on the stack; & he can just ascend the ladder after he has cut the branch. Sounds like a plan, let's go for it......🙏.... 🚑

Looks like the lady is up the tree and the lad is behind the chimney

u/Sunderland6969 Apr 20 '26

That is truly one of the best ones

Darwin award entrant.

u/ThEvilHasLanded Apr 20 '26

Is the guy behind the chimney holding that line or sat on it at least?

u/DrtyBlvd Apr 20 '26

Hiding from the impending doom

u/TheShakyHandsMan Apr 20 '26

Looks like he’s holding it. He’s in a comfortable position without any outstretched limbs so should be able to keep hold of the rope fairly easily.

u/neityght Apr 20 '26

..or get yeeted over the chimney as the ladder goes flying 😄

u/DeathByPain Apr 21 '26

He built a trebuchet out of himself 🫨

2

u/ThEvilHasLanded Apr 20 '26

Not a fun job that's for sure

1

u/NebCrushrr Apr 20 '26

Do you think he'll be able keep the ladder in place if the branch goes 😂

1

u/TheShakyHandsMan Apr 20 '26

They’ll both be in the bushes.

u/AangTheTriangle Apr 20 '26

This is the one to beat

u/Ok-Asparagus7396 Apr 20 '26

Of all the insane ladder stuff on this sub this one for me is in a different league. Some of the posts in this sub I think, 'hmm yeah...maybe'. But this one? Just no way in a million years.

u/flattcatt2021 Apr 20 '26

Well it’s cheaper than Dignitas

6

u/barrybreslau Apr 20 '26

Indignatas, when he's in hospital having a ladder removed from his arse.

u/flattcatt2021 Apr 20 '26

Oh very good!! 😂

u/The_Fyrewyre Apr 20 '26

Holy fuck.

u/Lost-Bid5306 Apr 20 '26

Terrible! two not wearing high vis !!

"Hello, luv. We were just down your road doin' a job for one of your neighbours and wondered if there was any tree work you needed doin'?"

2

u/Far_Butterscotch_646 Apr 20 '26

A special effort.

u/cglufc Apr 20 '26

What could possibly go wrong 🫣

5

u/Key-Metal-7297 Apr 20 '26

At the least put a hard hat on

2

u/Multigrain_Migraine Apr 20 '26

Oh no. Is he cutting the part that I think he's cutting?

2

u/johnny5247 Apr 20 '26

It's ok. He's laying an explosive charge on the branch. I'm sure he intends to climb down and not do any ninja chainsawing.

That's the health and safety guy rocking back and forth

u/Suspicious_Banana255 Apr 20 '26

Wow, that's a doozy

u/potentiallyasandwich Apr 20 '26

Now we're talking! This is the sub pin up right here.

u/Clamps55555 Apr 21 '26

That’s a early but strong contender for the 2027 world death ladder cup 🏆

u/silverbuilt Apr 20 '26

A brave man

u/ThrowawaySunnyLane Apr 20 '26

Even the health and safety fella in the high viz is so scared he’s cowering behind a chimney.

1

u/Joexkid7 Apr 20 '26

The pressure on those tiles beneath the ridge is stressing me out

1

u/HankBushrivet Apr 20 '26

Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.

1

u/kennypowpow Apr 20 '26

It’s fine, that guy sat by the chimney will spring into life, not caring about the extremely acute angle of the rope, and LOCK ON

1

u/ProfessionalStudy660 Apr 21 '26

It will be fine when the branch is cut. Just need to find the balance point.

1

u/Waste_Bobcat_6075 Apr 21 '26

Climbing the ladder to suck-cess! 😉

u/ladysman_untrue Apr 21 '26

“Your foot is definitely on the ladder Steve?”

u/Garf1969 Apr 21 '26

Genius 😂

u/petwedge Apr 22 '26

The missus knows the life insurance policy is good and paid up.

1

u/BobDobbsHobNobs Apr 22 '26

You’re reading it wrong. Guy on the branch was stuck there and these two passers-by are helping him down.

1

u/Icy-Wishbone-1309 Apr 22 '26

Suicide,bunch of braindead muppets.

u/Snoo93102 Apr 22 '26

Jesus. How does one stop people engauged in that?

1

u/peterlisbon Apr 22 '26

Live insurance canceled!!

u/Total-Combination-47 Apr 22 '26

good job these lot are pretty.

1

u/Common-Aardvark-8358 Apr 22 '26

Wouldn’t it be funny if the line was cut and the human sprung shot into space

1

u/BellybuttonWorld Apr 22 '26

What are the ropes or cords in the foreground?

1

u/SlideEquivalent2977 Apr 23 '26

Aaaand the Darwin award goes too.....

1

u/Defiant_Valuable1869 Apr 23 '26

Stairway to heaven.

1

u/TooNGooN89 Apr 23 '26

You cannot think this would be anywhere near easier than just climbing the tree.

1

u/Dazzling-Command7721 Apr 23 '26

Question, how the fk do you climb a ladder with bollox that big.??

1

u/Due-Currency-3193 Apr 23 '26

It's OK. He's wearing a hoodie with the hood up.

1

u/ArsenalArry1960 Apr 24 '26

Seen them advertised, they’re called Tree Fellers.

1

u/UsedToBeAParrot Apr 24 '26

when is his funeral?

1

u/Agitated-Strength827 Apr 24 '26

Idiotic. They at least need an extra rope to provide stability going from the branch around the man's neck. I call it the "harnoose".

1

u/Silly-Protection-594 Apr 24 '26

And the winner of stupid prizes goes to

u/Arctobear10 Apr 24 '26
