The best bet is to sit on the window ledge and jump away from the

Or an escape ladder under the bed?

Rope ladders are very hard to climb. I bet that's similar. And yes
down is easier than up but still not easy.


You are supposed to climb a rope ladder from the side - one leg and one
hand front and back of the ladder. My escape ladders supports hold it
away from the wall, so that is possible.


Out of interest, have you tried?
