Collapsing the Lion Ladder

Worlds Coolest Shrinking ladder! You won't believe this!
What happens here
To collapse the Lion Ladder, locate the two small, black tabs on the underside of each rung, near the side rails. For safe and controlled retraction, it is recommended to collapse the ladder from the top down, one rung at a time. Press both tabs on a single rung simultaneously inward. This action disengages the locking mechanism and releases the air pressure, allowing that rung to slowly and safely retract downwards into the rung below it. Repeat this process for each subsequent rung, ensuring your fingers are clear of the collapsing sections, until the entire ladder is fully collapsed into its compact, portable size. The presenter emphasizes that the retraction is smooth, not fast or sudden, due to the controlled air release.
Goal: Safely collapse the telescopic ladder for storage
