took a picture in the light today and not at 6:30 am. The weeds and trees that grow on the ladder for a good 4 stories up that you need to climb thru, my one buddy went up the the 4th support on it that goes from the stack to the metal pipe on it, none of those big clamps seem to have any bolts in them for some reason, lol the ladder of death

I can just see this on the news…

“In other news, a man died last night while attempting to climb an old abandoned stack in troy. He fell 11 stories to his death. This was all just part of a dare from peers on a local car forum.”

40’ ladders scare me. Actually anything more than a step ladder scares me.  
No way would I be climbing this thing.

Wheres the guy that climbs the light poles at McDonald’s? He’d probably do it.
