What happens here

The presenter showcases a real-world application of this tip by demonstrating how an 18-foot ladder is securely attached to the roof rack of another van using scrap Romex wire. He pulls and pushes on the ladder with considerable force to illustrate that the Romex effectively prevents any movement. This highlights that repurposing leftover Romex creates a secure and cost-effective support system for transporting large items.

Goal: Demonstrate practical application of Romex as a tie-down for transport.
