Can I climb a building with this? I don't want to die. Thanks!

No, they are really meant for webbing bad guys, or stopping moving vehicles and hanging them from lamp posts. You have to get the Amazing Spider-Man 2 Mega Blaster Web Shooter with Glove in order to scale tall buildings.

Not really. You could rest them on the bar at the top, stabilizing the item(s) while you descend or mount. I usu have someone hand me heavy items once I am up on the ladder or hand things down to someone.

i made the mistake of buying this, unfortunately it is a "prop" and broke on use number one of trying yo climb my house... why do so many people want to climb houses.anyways, id say it is reliable so long as you aren't putting over 50. lbs. on it

You might be able to rig up a way, but it doesn't seem like it would be a great idea. It would dangle off your foot . . . not to workable.

I have never had to use the escape ladder (thank God) but although it is designed to stand off from a wall, I see no reason why it wouldn't work off a balcony...the whole point is getting out and on the ground without jumping.

Yes you can....there are settings to steup or step down depending on where you use it..

I believe that the max weight capacity is 300 lbs. It should be good for climbing trees as long as it is attached to a secure point to where you wish to climb. Since I purchased mine I will not climb to any height without using my safety system.

I wish! It might be possible to devise something. The weight of the structure needs to be supported from the bottom. Picking it up from the top threatens to weaken the walls and the whole thing could fall apart. However, there's an elevator shaft that runs through the center. If you would remove the elevator, or work around it, you could potentially run something through the center that holds the whole thing up from a secure platform at the bottom.

Should be ok to use while on a ladder. It is very lightweight and can be used with one hand.

I am terrified of heights and don't trust ladders. This one is VERY stable and I've used mine several times

It's not light but I can pick it up and carry it short distances. It does have wheels which might help. I have wheeled it between buildings but I have not tried to move it up and down stairs. Anyway, going down would be lot easier than going up which might require two people.

4th floor walk up should be do-able. You'll need a second person to help carry, but it's not as heavy as you'd think. But it is very sturdy.

As I stated in my previous review, I don't know because I was never limber emough to climb on top of the step ladder. It was too tall for me. But I have a shorter one from the same company and I've never had a problem with slipping.

I've dropped it once while I was holding it and it was fine. I wouldn't recommend dropping it from a building!

I have used two of these on a metal "A" frame roof with no problem. As I was 30 feet in the air, I did tie a rope (600#) capacity to the end of the ladder and secured it to a heavy object on the other side of the "A" Frame. Also used a safety Belt.

Yes it can. I have difficulty rising & I bought this to allow me to have other seating arrangements. Also, being portable it can go with me & I don't have to worry about getting "stuck" and not being able to rise.

If you just want to "walk with it", i.e. placing it on the ground as you take every other step, thenit's fine. You won't hurt it. If you intend to place more than a few pounds of pressure on it as you walk, let's say 20 lbs rough guess, then it's a bad idea. You will not be able to lean on it or use it to catch yourself if you stumble.
