Is dangerous if an iguana climb under the roof and stay upside-down ?

Is dangerous if an iguana climb under the roof ?
I built a vivarium with "hardware cloth" and my igs climb and get free access to under the roof and stay upside-down
my question is: Should I block the access there ? Is it dangerou ? Can my ig fall down ?

Sorry, but I will insist to write in english
Imagine a vivarium covered with a kind of mesh.
The iguana can climb by the side and go up until it reaches the ceiling, of course it will be upside-down, because it climbed and reached the ceiling...
Ok. Now my doubt is: Could I leave its there ? (I mean, should I block its access to there)

Let me draw:

When one of my igs was a hatchling he did climb and hang upside down from the top of the cage.. bad thing is he was right unfer the lights so his access had to eb restricted from that area... I would think your guy will be fine hanging upside down but if you have any doubts... Dont let him do it
