I once witnessed a man falling from a ladder on a job site. I accompanied my step father to his job. He is a painter. While I was there a man climbed a ladder to get on the roof. He din't check the base of the ladder to see how balanced it was. As he climbed it the ladder fell over and he hurt his arm really bad. I remember being shocked as I saw him coming down. Everyone rushed over to help him and make sure he was okay. Then, they took him to the hospital. As we kept on working, the other workers discussed the key points of safety. They mentioned how he didn't make sure the ladder was safe to climb. Safety is the number one rule no matter what job.
