I was doing the get-out for my last show at the school. The schools health and Safety officer turned up as i was climbing down a set of "Fixed ladders" from our patch board and dimmer units.
I jumped of of the last rung and onto the floor. it was like a foot of the ground. The H&S officer came over to me and said "were you in a rush" i said no i just thought i should be safe and turn of the power to the units before unpatching stuff.
The trip switch was at stage level
I was then moving flats to the back wall of the stage to Store Them i then realized that the Smoke detector had been ripped from the wall and was dangling by a small cable. i said to the H&S Officer and he said "oh it deosent really matter right now"
I WAS LIKE OMG (not to his face)
ITS A SMOKE DETECTOR ON A STAGE WITH HIGH VOLTAGE POWER!!!
