Terrible day at my Son's workplace

Terrible news. Everyone needs to stay safe out there. When we are more than 3 feet aloft outside and can strap off to something, we have to. In 20 years of working at 18 feet, I have never fallen, and my strap has saved me once when my ladder footing sunk in mud and the hooks had the ladder sliding down the mid span strand. Hooks finally hit the strand and flipped the ladder out from under me but I was still strapped around the ladder rung and the strand. I hung there for a minute while the customer scrambled to get my ladder seated again. whole thing happened in about 3 seconds. If he were not watching me work, I could have been up there a few more minutes while wrestling with my ladder that was still attached to me.
