Consider this kind of fire escape:
My heroine (who had trained with the Romanian gymnastics team) is being chased by a bad guy. She jumps and pushes off from the wall of a building and grabs onto the ladder part of a fire escape like the one pictured above.
My questions:
1. Would that ladder part stay up, or would it start descending when her weight is on it?
2. Are you familiar with that type of fire escape (poll)? IOW, do I have to describe it in detail, or would you understand if I referred to the kind of fire escape with a ladder that slides down?
