  • yeah 5ft,this is the little peoples home!

  • @lanegjones killed? lol it was like 5 feet off the ground.. I would have just jumped into the yard as soon as it started to fall.....

  • Facts is, that in this country, there are probably at least forty percent of exterior add-on decks not built correctly, partly because of hacks and DIYs building them, and partly because they skate by outside of normal building inspections and codes in many jurisdictions

  • "why you never just put new decking on old supports! "

    Why in the world would that be true?

    What a conscientious contractor does is to make sure it is done right.

    From this video, it is obvious that this post was never UNDER THAT BEAM SUPPORTING IT, so only luck and a couple lags were doing more than they were capable of for years.

  • wow  is it fixed?

  • I second that!Let this be a warning to you guys,and be thankful nobody was killed!!Always start from scratch

  • Not to be a jerk but this is why you never just put new decking on old supports! Always rebuild from scratch!

    Glad everyone was ok.
