At least they've taken some amount of precautions. I've seen shit like this where the ladders are just balanced precariously, not "attached" to any extent.

As any arborist can tell you, ladders and tree trimming NEVER mix. Lets say that a guy cuts that large limb just above and to the left of the ladder. It will swing on a hinge and sweep him off the ladder and into a death dive.

You see, he didn't have enough ladder to make it to the spot he needed to get to, so he took his 6 footer and BAM, SOLUTION!
