I'm not scared of climbing up there, but sliding down to the 10ft fall to the ground is not good.
So it's ugly or it actually harms the shingles?

I get it. I'm not afraid of getting on our second story roof. I've been up there. But the pitch is higher than most houses around here, and the idea of sliding off the second floor is "exciting", but not in a good way.
