It's all good mang. ;) Was at a party and fell 2 stories off a balconey when i was a dumb arse kid. Broke my back in a few places and ended up in a wheelchair. :eek: The strange thing is this was the best thing that could have ever happend to me. At this point i would have to say i would have either been in jail or dead by now. I was a crazy mother man let me tell ya. I'm still not playing with a full deck but that's another story. :rofl:
 
I am a roofing contractor Sticky, and believe me there is a time,and place for harnesses. We hate wearing them , but if you are up high enough to kill you if you fall , it is worth wearing one. At least until you have some jacks,and planks in place anyway. I wonder why this "contractor" did not rent a manlift to do them eyebrows? Man, that is what we do. Sounds like this guy shouldn't be in business to begin with.
 
You guys are brave to even be in a 2 story roof. I am afraid of heights!!!! :)

LOL TBG, I bet we would have been wonderful friends back then. I was pretty crazy myself. ;)
