That isn’t actually too bad. If the railing is solid, that’s not going anywhere
Agree, but that’s a mighty powerful “if”.
Specifically, it’s putting the stress on the vertical support pieces of the railing with a horizontal force. While this one looks sturdy, that piece is often strictly decorative. It’s also not designed for that type of stress.
It’s certainly not as bad as it looks, but it’s also not ideal
Ok, but you can also just stick paint rollers on a stick.
Something funny is going on here. Looks fake. Look at the “foot” of ladder when it contacts the floor beneath the railing. It’s completely flush with the floor, not how a ladder normally is. Unless of course they cut the bottom of the ladder which seems like a lot of work to do something half assed.
He’s got his OSHA certified “Buddy holding the ladder”. he good.
This is such amateur bullshit. He needs to hold it steady by bracing the ladder’s feet.
