I don't think you'd get it very high, would you? I haven't opened my 410 boom all the way out, but I don't think the tipper arm opens up far enough to be pointing up. It would still be angling down. Even if it did open up that far, I wouldn't want to be in a basket on the end of it. Height wouldn't be my main concern. Rather, it would be sticking out way, way far back behind the cab, and any small movement would be exacerbated tenfold.
I can't say that it would pass any OHSA requirements or that I'd recommend others to try it at home, but I quite frequently pick up one of those metal 4X4 cages with the pallet forks on a tractor loader (the cages that are used on 4X4 totes/tanks/firewood), then ratchet strap the heck out of it to the forks so there's no risk of it coming off. One of us will drive the tractor and the other will be in the cage up front with a chainsaw/pole-saw, to trim trees/brush around the edge of a field. Works quite well. Even with only a chainsaw and no pole-saw a guy can clear up to 14' or so from the ground. Wouldn't want to do it on some of our steep side hills, but works fine on flatter land.

He had over a period of months spent a fair amount of his hard earned cash on replacement parts for the old "trembler" ignition. Sadly though all his efforts seemed to be a waste of time and money as he still couldn''t get the temperamental old thing to run correctly!!
