We won’t be complaining about changing a 60-watt bulb after seeing this…

When it comes to doing the household chores, JOE usually approaches them with a massive frown and pouty demeanour like a 7-year old child that just dropped their ice cream with a big smile but we do look for a way to make them more interesting though.

If  you’re ever bored then we highly recommend a bit of extreme ironing which involves you trying to the creases out of your shirt whilst hanging from the roof via a Mission:Impossible style harness.

Daredevil dish-washing usually sees us throwing our dishes up into the air like a frisbee before catching them and gently placing them into the sink.

While we look for new ways to break up the boredom of housework we do think that our tried and tested method of changing lightbulbs is just fine.

Our decision has nothing to do with this vertigo inducing footage of Kevin Schmidt climbing to the very top of the inactive KDLT TV broadcast antenna near Salem, South Dakota.

Take a look.
