The ladder should be at a 1 in 4 angle (75 degrees), that could slip out from under you and send you through the window.

Clear some space and use it in the stepladder configuration. Be safe...

It's at 60° with big rubber feet at each end. Could lean it against the boxed in section for a bit more angle but then I'd be leaning off it to reach stuff. Stepladder configure would have me standing on the top or second to top rung with nothing to hold onto :)

Stepladder config would still be safer. I know what you mean though, you're standing on it so you get a feel for how secure it is. Looking forward to the future of the internet h&s remote policing though. :)

BBC says accidents with ladders are the largest cause of diy deaths.
