“Stairs” that ever Spiderman would reconsider…
When does a stairs become a ladder?
Steep stairs are one thing, but putting carpet on them is just asking to slip.
At what point does a set of stairs become a wall? How thin can steps be before they are no longer considered steps?
I don’t know but I think it’s fair to say if it becomes necessary to ask those questions then you went too far.
I would assume when you can no longer stand on them.
I know it’s stupid, but it’s posts like this that make me really wish that the fediverse had gold badges to award
Wtf, why didn’t you tell me you were coming over?
(Thankfully not nearly as steep)
My old house had some steep stairs that felt like this.
My wife broke her ankle on them, fun story… Nope. That sucked.
“Time for bed! Who’s gonna belay me?”
I’ll sleep at base camp tonight and try for the summit in the morning.
Lol if you can afford to buy a house with an upstairs, you can afford an autobelay
Dutch stairs. Yes, they’re like that.
Yep can confirm this is standard issue in slightly older Dutch houses.
When my siblings and I were kids, we would ride laundry baskets down the stairs.
These stairs would be fucking rad to do that with.
Once, anyway.
Riding the laundry basket off the roof would be more comparable
Looks like an advanced Doom II map.
Just missing a teleport at the top to simulate a second floor, or a silent téléporter if you’re really fancy.
House of Leaves vibes
Where I come from we call these, “up only” stairs. Kind of like how Perl is a write-only language.
I guarantee I can get down them. Very quickly.
At this point, just use a ladder. It’d be safer too.
That would also make space for a slide-down pole, which would be faster.
Just give me a sec to put on my jump kit.
