This is my partner in roofing Matty.
Thanks for going the extra mile and doing this stunt in only your boxers. I wanted him to be in barefeet as well but the landing would have been to hard on his feet. The idea came to me while we were shingling this house this week. The story is ... A husband arrives home early and the surprise causes such fear that the subject had to grab his clothes and make an unconventional run for it

I love the humour of the shot.

Hope this does well

This is hilarious!! As soon as I saw it I knew it was yours. You have some brave yahoos working with you. Everytime I see something like this it makes my skin crawl. I'm terrified of heights. Great idea! Good job!!

The blown out sky seems to work here. Good contrast in the house. Excellent capture of the emotion.

Cute & Clever photo that is well put together. With just a little thought the viewer can figure out the punchline on this and how it fits the challenge. Congrats! Should do quite well with this.

Very funny and also it looks very dangerous. I like the backwards look while jumping. Good thing he took the time to put on shoes, socks and hat but didn't have time for pants or shirt. I'm wondering how you got away with being on the rooftop in boxers. The white wall is washed out and the rest of the building isn't that interesting, but it was needed for this picture and was framed about the best you could.

Your going to beak you neck. I like it but I'm afraid if I give you a high score It'll only encourage you to even more extemes.

Run for your life - but remember to put on your shoes and socks and don't forget to tie your laces... Sorry but am not convinced. But nice idea.

Ok im voting high marks just for finding someone with enough guts to go on the roof and jump around in his boxers. Had a good laugh with this one.

lol you deserve 3 ribbons.

The picture doesn't really convey emotion without the title/explanation; however it is a decent shot. Blue sky would improve. I also think the message could have been better conveyed if the fellow were just coming out of the window - possibly with someones hand on his leg.

That is toooo funny. A touch blown out in the lighting dept but a GREAT image nonetheless.
