Unfortunately he’s forgotten it… His brother died in the same fall
Really amazing story. I thought maybe the platform he was on kinda slid somewhat slowly and maybe that saved him, but they quote one person at the accident scene who said he was found under the platform.
Just thought I should post something positive for a change…
In The Wild Trees, Richard Preston has a chilling description of what happens on impact to a body when it falls from a great height – and his scenario presumes landing on the forest floor, not asphalt.
