yup! it drove me crazy. i knew it was meant for me to get to it, because i saw that plank conveniently placed so that i could use it to climb to the top of the crates.
when i saw that, i knew i couldn't rest till i solved it. took me quite awhile because to get there involved something that is usually not allowed in this game.
it was fun solving it, tho!!
oh, and it taught me something worth remembering early on: don't take anything for granted.
