You can see the video for yourself, very brave man

Cant see any bravery ... lots of stupidity perhaps .. not worth dying for at any price.

That was on the Facebook window cleaners page ages ago. We got Andrew Willis to report him to health & safety (Andrew has the contacts), and a bunch of us sent e-mails to the hotel - none of us got a reply though,..

Funny you should say that...

We've just had BBC News on the phone asking to interview Andy for the 6 o'clock news tonight!

Interesting subject this. Because of the height involved it looks shocking. At the end of the day though if you fall off your ladder at second storey height onto concrete the results could be pretty similar I would imagine. So the danger level is probably fairly similar.

Done similar myself in the past.
Biggest criticism - not much detailing was there? ;D ;D

This indeed was the final bit of news on the BBC tonight. I don't think the same guy will be doing them next month that's for sure.

Looking back its highly stupid but I when I started in '98 I used to walk along adjoining ledges to 3, 3rd floor flats, they were crazy days cleaning any window by any method.

Ps your right about the detailing Granny!

worry about your own business and stop reporting someone minding his own business, can't believe someone reported him to H&S and emailed the hotel ???
