We have 20+ bins of corn. We turn on the fan, then crawl into EVERY one twice/month all winter, drag our feet around checking for a crust and using our nose--the smell of corn with a problem will be evident if you start the fan. We even have a special calendar that we use to keep track of the bins to make sure ALL get checked.
I would crawl in and level it off unless it was 14% or less when it went in.
I have unloaded dry corn from gov't bins thru the side door for 25 years and never had a problem.

I cannot see what is unsafe about crawling into a bin that is not being unloaded
