Limbs cut from a ladder rarely fall straight down, which is why limb removal above head height is a job for a trained climber.
A cut limb can swing, kick back toward the trunk, or roll after it lands, and a ladder leaned against the same tree leaves no room to move. Warning signs that a job is past DIY include limbs thicker than a wrist above head height, anything near a power line or service drop, limbs over a roof, fence, or neighboring yard, and cracked branches already hung up in the canopy, which are under tension and can release without warning.
