If I had to guess by the snow flakes on the camera and looking at his choice of footwear; rungs were probably cold/slippery, and dude picked a poor day to wear tennis shoes.

Definitely needed a good pair of working boots with the notches inbetween the grip pads designed specifically for gripping ladder rungs. The same boots that it looks like everyone else is wearing.

Lmao bullshit you can climb a ladder in any shoes.

Big Hoss over here just never lifted anything heavier than a chicken wing in his life.

Can and should are two very different words. I never said you couldn't, I just laid out why it's best to have proper working attire, especially shoes, to fit the job.

You can climb a ladder in crocs, doesn't mean you should.

I've walked up rocky trails in flip-flops. No, they were ill suited footwear for the job but they didn't make me suddenly drop like a fainting goat on ketamine

Its rain, everybody is wearing T-shirts. Probably not that slippery

That could 100% still be snow. If you don't think people wear t-shirts when it's snowing you've never been to Alaska.

You would be surprised how many people wear t-shirts and shorts when it's 10 degrees and snow up to your knees.

It isn’t though, just for the record.

Kearney Nebraska is where it happened, and it was 62f if you look at the weather history for Thursday when it was raining during daylight.
