If you work at height, you are supposed to have a watcher who will always help you hold the ladder firmly to the wall while you work. We advise people against working without a watcher. Please stop putting your life at risk because you have kids whose future depends on you - don't shatter their future. Don't work without a watcher. Let this be a lesson. |

And i can also say with certainty that if OP had purchased the needed safety items to wear for the job, his total wage wouldnt cover the cost. You wan bet ? airsaylongcome: |

Have you ever heard about fall arrest before? That is the technology/safety equipment when working at a height in developed environment. Google it and learn. |

Blossommind:Bro go do scan for that head, to avoid story that touch the heart, you could have a fractured skull or internal bleeding. Please do the scan to be sure |

Kaykay: The young man was working in an ”underdeveloped environment” though so you dont expect him to be provided with any safety gear. 1 Like |

Securing the ladder is more important than Securing the bag. |

radiolover: My brother easier said than done o. X-ray is expensive for someone that is trying to make ends meet. Trust me even if someone hands him the money, he will use it to take care of his family. I know how it is cus I’ve been there, family will come first even before his health. 3 Likes 1 Share |

So sorry, sir! We lost one of our workers yesterday and the second guy is still in a coma! Both of them were plumbers, trying to make ends meet! Sincerely, it takes the grace of God for one to go out and come back home safely. 2 Likes |

dotedote: Which is preferable? To get a tool that will keep you safe and alive to perform several more jobs? Or to say "how much this job dey pay wey I go use bug money buy harness?". He didn't start painting at height today. If he had bought a harness years ago, he would have used it for multiple jobs reducing the cost of the harness per job |

So sorry bro..this is what artisan that climbs height face...I am also a painter,sometimes back, I fell from a scaffold, of about 2 storey building, I slipped and fell in between the scaffold, I was almost at the last floor,before I quickly grabbed the bamboo,which stopped me from crashing onto the interlocking floor..It was so quick and scary... I have also fell from a ladder too,while painting a storey building .it was just miracle that didn't make me sustain life threatening injuries... To be a man no easy.. Interior decoration/painting has been my passion,reason why I didn't use my engineering certificate to look for office job... I love painting. It is well. |

Hope you don't get a concussion. It usually set in a day or two later. Keep an eye on it. Once you start noticing dizziness, then you might have a concussion. Moral lesson to this story, secure your work environment before you start working. |

Very good sense of humour despite a terrible fall. May the Lord heal you completely, without complications and may your rich journey unfold. |

Sorry my brother i am wit u on this i am am mason i had previous experiences but i would advise never climb a scaffold or ladder until all safety measures are met. And also do not be on any alcohol on or before climbing on any scaffold |

Blossommind:Africa, our problems are real. I understand the suffering but why do we still end up putting ourselves in a sorry state. Anything above 4ft ,it is necessary we apply safety measures. If you are painting a 1-storey building or something high, how can you use a ladder knowing you will spend more time in it? Why can't we rent scaffolders, lanyards, scissor lift proper Personal protective equipment (PPE). We kill ourselves in this country.. we really do.. Now you have hurt yourself, no insurance , no govt support, no aid from anyone. Wake-up Africa. Ps: so sorry you had this accident |
Re: Bad Day: I Fell From Ladder Today While Doing House Painting by oghenewale: 4:26pm On May 11, 2023 |
Thank God the accident did not lead to FATALITY. Its' an unsafe act to work on a ladder alone and considering the height, you should always use body harness for safety purpose. Just ensure you go for proper medical check up asap. |

Pls lets try and help him in our own little way so he can go for medical check-up. 1k each from a cheerful giver would go a long way. Just my opinion thou. 4 Likes |
