On second glance I just noticed the huge pile of furniture below him, stacked in the street.

He's actually strapped into the ladder. So he can't even do the classic "hang-from-cables-as-ladder-falls-away" gag. Instead he does the comic "impaled-by-splintered-furniture-as-ladder-pulls-him-toward-his-doom".

And why the hell is there furniture stacked in the road, anyway?

And there's the 15-foot-long metal beam rail. A metal beam rail only works in tension, so that one isn't going to protect anything, and presents an impalement hazard to any vehicles that might hit it.

Nah, it's looped around the wire. He'll be hanging from cables while the ladder is wrapped around his legs and being suspended by the cable, too

I don't know, zoomed in it *really* looks like it's wrapped around the ladder rung by his knee.

EDIT: Nvm. Now I see it. I think he's wrapped around the ladder rung *and* cable.


Maybe it's acting like a "safer barrier" like they use in auto racing.

If you click "Street View - Jan 2015", you can go back to previous passes and see that the furniture shows up intermittently, and there's always a guy in a orange coat by the junction box. So it's probably a local carpenter selling his wares.

Probably the exact same story as that that one bridge and all the people who are driving trucks without knowing their actual clearance.

As I recall, in the full video you see a supervisor run over and switch places with the driver after the gif ends, because the driver wasn't licensed to drive on airport property.
