Default Treestand accidents and safety

I am bored; time for another broken ankle post. This pertains to hangon stand hunters.When climbing a tree, whetherusing climbing sticks or stickladders, have you ever fell or about fell when at the top, simply because you were attempting to hook up your safety rope to the tree and your harnass before stepping onto your treestand? Same thing can happen when decending. I have had a few close calls over the years, but haven never fallen. I always think to myself of how ironic it is that the only safety issue with my style of hunting is using the safety equipment.
