What happens here
Before proceeding with the chimney demolition, the creator sets a specific precondition for the client: 'We want that chimney disconnected from the post coming up in front of it.' He explains that if the chimney pulls the post, it could damage the structure. The client agrees to disconnect the chimney from the wall. The creator later notes this was a mistake on his part, as directing the work could potentially be misconstrued as him taking responsibility for the method, rather than just setting a condition.
Goal: Ensure client agrees to risk mitigation steps and consider implications of directing work
