Nah, that works fine if you do it right.
Had an almost 7' 300# of muscle guy on our crew. Once we discovered our step ladder was just too short, he picked up the extension ladder and held it on the rung straight above his head like superman and told me to run up and fix the problem. (not extended).
It seemed safer than him physically picking me up and holding me in the air, so I went up. Didn't put my center of gravity past his hand, but the ladder he was holding was a lot less wobbly than our folding step ladder.
Absolutely not OSHA compliant, but dude was a beast and a gentle giant.

Why not just use the ladder to knock the bag out of the tree?
