[quote=Anonymous]I tried practicing with one once out of first floor window that is hind of high above the ground because of a high basement. I could get the ladder on the window but as for me trying to get out onto it, I thought I'd break my neck. They really sway badly -- even with the "feet". I'd feel better shimmying down knotted rope. That said, we have one that installs into the wall in my son's room. That way it is totally securely held. I figure he could use it like a rope to help steady himself to climb down the porch roof as a last resort emergency, and then worst case use it for a controlled drop. You can't practice with it. Too hard to put back. [/quote]
