My gutter diy turned into a ladder disaster

I tried to clean my gutters last Sunday and my extension ladder slid out sideways on the wet grass... landed me in a bush full of thorns. Took me 20 minutes to untangle myself and all I managed to clean was about 3 feet of gutter before giving up. Has anyone else had a ladder fail on them like that or is it just my bad luck?

Oh man, that bush must have really thorned you up! Sounds like your ladder saw a patch of grass and decided to go for a slip and slide instead of staying put. At least you got a solid 3 feet done before nature fought back.

Sounds dramatic. A few scratches versus a broken leg, you lucked out.
