Two workers plunge to the ground after the ladder they are climbing breaks off the side of a building in Moscow The men fall two floors as they try to reach a rooftop to clear snow and ice  Ladder supports the first man but snaps from brackets when the second gets on The second man catches his leg in a ledge and flips as he plummets to ground  They both land inches away from a third man who dived out of the way into snow
