#18 Warning Anti Climb Paint

A warning sign in Canterbury, England.

Went out to Canterbury in Kent this weekend.  Walking by a building I noticed this sign alongside a drainpipe.

The drainpipe has been coated with what I can only imagine is paint that never fully dries.  This is to discourage people from attempting to climb up it (presumably to gain access to areas otherwise unreachable?)

One wonders how old the sign is.  If the anti climb paint is new.  If they plan on replacing the sign on a regular basis?

I digress.  Clearly, some people want to push the boundaries of their world.  Test the waters of life to see if they can achieve what no others have.  Prove to themselves that it’s not just a pack of lies.  Others just never learn.
