That call was correct...it was a shoulder to the helmet which is an action prohibited against a player in a defenseless posture. A player is prohibited from forcibly contacting a player in a defenseless posture with the helmet, including the crown of the helmet, facemask, shoulder, or forearm.

Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.
