I did not see that earlier..

But....

Some may think juggling hand grenades is "safe" if they
do it a lot.  Probably not any safer, just luck.

People die using vehicles to hoist loads.  It is dangerous,
but, yes, like wingwalking without a harness, you are
free to risk your life.  I pray your loved ones have
healthy insurance on you.

Most folks will not do this, the commercial
tower industry has a few companies with
abject disregard for the safety of their employees,
but very few thankfully.
