He was running towards a beach and jumped off a little ledge onto the beach sand to the water.
The so called little ledge ended up being a 10 metre drop.
We were shown photos from both angles from where he jumped and from where he landed.
They are not the same.
From where he jumped looks like a metre drop to the sand. Looking back well over ten metres sheer drop.
Moral of the story, to be super careful, as things aren’t always as they seem.

For those who are interested, he has woken from his coma and come good considering.
Can sit up and talk a little.
Fully coherent and will be sent to rehab shortly.
Great news all round.
Hoping for a full recovery.

Gday everyone.
Long time not here.
Some of may know or remember me having heart troubles with a pace maker and defibrillator installed. Cos of bad arrhythmia’s.
Any way my heart failure has come to a stage of requiring a heart transplant.
Reason I’m writing this is not for sympathy of support.
Just a s a reminder if the importance of being a ORGAN DONOR.

Jesus Mego, that is certainly something I didn't want to hear. All the best mate, and message certainly received.
What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal??

Mate, that is really sad to hear. I still owe you a couple of pies or pasties, from the Tallarook trip. It will all go well for you, so we can get to another meet, do some wheeling, and I can settle up. All the best hopes and wishes for you.

Jesus Mego!!! Sorry to hear that mate.
Your biggest problem will be that there ain't many Elephants on the donor registry mate. You have a Giant Heart brother and this could surely only be found in a greater mammal.
Will they chase just a heart or heart and lungs mate.??
Please keep us informed bud, good luck. Once you are the $6million dollar man you need to see you around the fire mate.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
