WATCH: Woman demonstrates why you should NEVER climb a ladder unassisted
CLIMBING a ladder can be tricky, especially if you have no one to steady you, and one woman has demonstrated why it’s recommended you should always have someone holding the bottom.
Woman lands head first as DIY goes wrong
The woman attempted to walk up a very tall step ladder while doing some home renovations - but she soon regretted her decision to climb it alone.
She propped the ladder, at full length, up against the wall, and began to slowly ascend.
What she forgot to consider, was the ladder was stood at an unsafe angle on her shiny wooden floor.
She only had one hand to hoist herself up, as she was holding something in the other, but this didn’t hinder her climb.
Ladder fail: This woman regretted her decision to climb unassisted
As a person, I found these hilarious! As a woman…I’m ashamed.
She almost made it to the top, when she decided she was high enough to put the object on the wall.
She stopped, adjusted her balance, but that’s when it all went wrong.
With her weight at the top of the ladder, it began to slide along the floor, and within a matter of seconds, she came tumbling down.
The ladder landed smack on ground, and she landed head first in-between two of the steps.

The disastrous moment was uploaded to Imgur, and in less than 24 hours has had more than 231,000 views.
Some people could feel the woman’s pain, commenting: “That’s one of my biggest fears. Omg, that’s so painful!”
Others were less sympathetic: “As a person, I found these hilarious! As a woman…I’m ashamed.”
Another woman experienced a massive fail when she attempted to workout in her kitchen.
Ladder fail: When she got to the top it came tumbling down
Taking inspiration from fitness bloggers, the woman propped herself up between her two kitchen worktops in a plank position, and gripped on to the handle of the oven.
But seconds later, everything went terribly wrong, and her workout swiftly came to an end.
As she began to bend her arms to do a push up, the oven door swung open, she lost her balance, and she came tumbling down.
And to make things worse, the whole oven tipped forward and landed on top of her.
