How about next, we can make a federal law that you must go on your house roof in the winter time to clear off snow and ice so that the mailman isnt struck by an icesickle of death!
These people have too much time on their hands.
Correct. Over half of the trailers in our company have fiberglass roofs. We've had them collapse under a load of snow on their own, let alone with the weight of someone climbing on top.
Another thing is the height - isn't there an OSHA regulation that requires a barrier of some sort when someone is working above a certain height? Sorry, but a fall from 13' 6" off the ground can easily kill a person.
