Soiled pants. OHS

Knocking off work last Tue, heading for the car. I see a long extension ladder reaching (almost) to the roof of the factory over the road. Bloke up on roof was obviously cleaning the gutters. He was three floors up with a couple of garbage bags full of wet leaves. Must have been a big job judging from the size of the bags. His mate at the bottom of the ladder had decided to sit in the shade rather than hold the ladder. Designated ladder holder was sitting, relaxing under the veranda of the factory out of the sun.
Man on roof looks down and seeing that the all is clear, drops the two bags of wet leaves into the shrubs about 1M away from his relaxing mate.
I was not close enough to actually determine if the relaxing ladder-holder actually shat his pants when the heavy bags hit the shrubs to his side and shattered. It must have been a very close call.
