My first was quite a bit worse, and involved my Dads truck, and his garage, so I wasn't able to say much. With mine, noone got hurt... other than my backside, the truck and the garage. I just kept telling him I wasn't mad, and I really wasn't, because he did pretty good. He didn't even kill it, he cranked the clutch back down, and stomped the brakes, he was just too close to the wall originally because of the size of the garage.
I just look at it as a great learning experience, where no one... other than the ladder and the wall, got hurt. I can guarantee that he will remember it, at least for a little while. LOL It was a good example of how just a little mistake, can cause great damage.
