Ouch. Do I have a headache!!!!
As hard as he struck his forehead then the back of his head on the dock wall, he may have been unconscious by the time he hit the waterQuote:

MAY have been unconscious? I'm pretty sure if that happened to me, and I was not unconscious, I would definitely WISH I was. Might have been dead by the time he hit the water, too.Quote:

Makes me shiver deep inside seeing that happen to a guy. YIKES
I have a ladder that looks something like that after my 280lb BiL decided to extend it as far as it would go and set at about a 45* angle. After he folded it almost double I pointed out the ladder had a 200lb weight limit. oops
If my BiL did that to one of my ladders, he would then OWN it!!!
It was actually his ladder I just ended up with it. It had a couple straight sections that were long enough to be useful to me.
If it was your BiL and you owned the ladder, he'd get a bill or you'd dis-own him?Quote:
