Some guy in Texas did this with a nest of Africanized bees and got stung so many times it killed him. Scary.

Correct. That sounds really dumb. It's dangerous enough up there when the surface is dry.

That's why you have a steep pitch in the snow belt. The snow slides off rather than just sitting there and eventually leaking.
It also makes the attic space much more usable. Roofs with lower pitches make half the floor space unusable. Again, a European design feature because the cattle lived on the ground floor, and their body heat permeated up to the middle and uppermost storeys. |
