As a 30 year old, I look at stuff like the first one and think "Damn, that's dangerous" ...but when I was 20, working at Sports Authority, like 20 feet up in the H-frames, without a harness, hanging over the side to reach some boats on another H-frame to pull them square.

When I saw him doing that I laughed and called him a dumbass, he replied "yeah I really am but it's gotta get done and hey I haven't fell in a while."

 

Of course my 40yo self would probably still do something just as dumb.

Years ago I worked for a gutter company, but I was always much more comfortable doing the prep work on the ground.  My coworkers did some outright insane stuff though!  I recall a job on a three story house that was built into a hill.  On the backside, one of the guys had the 32' ladder going to a balcony, and a 28' ladder on the balcony, standing on the top rung to hang a piece of gutter.
