If you hit a rafter, you can do with just a few nails on each side. Without a rafter, a dozen nails like shown would be my minimum. In older houses, the roofing lumber is also much thicker than plywood used today, so hitting a rafter on an old roof also isn't as important.

WARNING: People can die just hanging in a harness if they are not putting pressure somehow on their feet or otherwise using their leg muscles to squeeze blood out of their legs. The presence of heavy gear belts is not helpful. It IS a known problem, even if it is not common. You can't predict who it will happen to. It can happen quickly, with no warning. Tragic outcomes have happened when people had fallen and were "safely" hanging from their harness awaiting recovery. One means of reducing risk is to have two recovery plans. One self-recovery plan and one for others to recover the fallen person. The other key is to NOT hang for 10-15 minutes. If someone is hanging and can't plant their feet on something, promptly recover them. I never heard of this problem until I was reading about roofing harnesses and OSHA regs. However, as they say, safety regulations are written in blood. Also, solitary roofers should be careful to have a REALISTIC recovery plan. Hanging by a harness, ESPECIALLY from a back D-ring, can be challenging situation to escape if you can't climb up or let yourself down. I am a former rock climber and I can see how getting back over the lip of a gutter could be a problem for some people , especially when hanging from the back. I can't imagine recovery from a hanging position supported at the back.

Actually this is partially wrong, the anchor seen in the video has the instructions written on it. In order for the anchor to achieve 5000 pound hold: 3M "Anchor must be fastened to the roof structure using a minimum of 10 #8x2" screws, or 16d 3" double head nails, in the center row of holes securing the Reusable Roof Anchor to the roof rafter." DBI-Sala " Position the anchor on the roof such that the 12 nail holes along the center of the legs are over (framing) member. Then, push down to minimize any gap between the anchor and the sheathing and nail. Use only 16d nails to install the anchor (six per leg into the rafters and sheathing). Install all 12 nails. If the roof anchor is not installed properly, it will not hold the rated loads and serious injury or death could occur.
