    When I was 4yo I lived on the top floor of a shitty apartment with access to the roof. Roof was not gated.

    Id spend so much time alone up there unsupervised until I was 7 and we moved.

    I’m surprised I’m alive.

      In our neighbourhood it was customary to celebrate Christmas on the open balcony of one of the high-rises. Children would climb to the highest floor and set off fireworks from the balcony. The railing was high, but the danger was still present.
