Well the ladder topic went well, so here is a new one.
Occassionally I see a crawl space where the home has had an addition. You can stick head & shoulders in & see the one area fine. But, there is another foundation wall for the original house, say maybe 12-15 feet away, with another crawl space entry hole.
So, how would you handle this? - okay it because you stuck "head and shoulders" in, crawl through the dirt to the second entry & stick head & shoulders in, or call for inspection by a qualified party to insure no dampness, settlement, etc.
Opinions anyone?
