Quoted: Um, that's not even close to what "herd mentality" means. Obviously anyone who thinks that is "dangerous" has never been on scaffold. How is it not? They just continue to walk up something that is obviously unstable and very tall, only because everyone else is doing it.

If it wobbled under the weight of 3 people, something would be wrong. I'd expect it to wobble under the weight of that many people. Is it unnerving? Yes. Is it safe? Maybe. Was your use of the term "herd mentality" correct? All signs point to No. |
