Neil dont be so stupid, you know damn well levitation isn't going to get you onto a flat roof from ground level, I use a space-hopper most of the time, you generally get a soft landing if you can't make the height  ;D

Matt, I'm not saying ladders are totally safe, so I used to climb out of the window onto flat roofs. Sod the cuts, braises, bruises and landing on your head doing it, far safer than climbing 10 steps of a ladder ;D
