That sure was me last year that fell out of the ladder stand. The strap to the ladder stand broke and the stand fell over sideways and broke a little support bar right in half. The stand toppled over all the way to the ground. I've never leave the ground that a climbing harness there's no point in it. Hell when you buy a new stand they give you 1 for free. I would hate for my own ignorance to be the cause of my demise. The ironic thing about the climbing harness is that it takes about the same time to put on as it does to fall out of your tree. I don't have any kids are anything but I still wear 1 I like to hunt the next day too. I sure am glad to hear you're alright don't chance it fellas it takes 5 seconds to put it on.
