Work at Height Regulations 2005. The Regulations apply to all work at height where there is a risk of a fall liable to cause personal injury.

This came into being on 1st April last year.I've seen the checklist of do's and don't,it is quite a big list.

Damn man, you're lucky.

I think its time to go out and buy a lottery ticket and a parachute.

VeNT · 30 Mar 2006 at 14:21

you are lucky, you could have blown some of your vertibra (sp pls) from an impact like that.

"Did the fall hurt?"

"No, just tha landing"

Hope the recovery goes to plan

As for Msn, why not use your mobile?

He is in Hospital, use of mobiles not allowed.

I guess it could have been a lot worse. Heres hoping you recover quickly and well

pyro · 30 Mar 2006 at 14:36

Dude be glad it's not worse, take care of yourself and I hope you have a speedy recovery

Violent-J · 30 Mar 2006 at 14:37

You made the right decision to break your legs than land on your back, it would have been a lot more serious otherwise.

You should make a nice sum of money out of this, and your legs will repair

FeFiDoh · 30 Mar 2006 at 14:41

could have been worse your lucky

suing over accidents tho :rolleyes:

Really hate that advert on TV "i had to climb into the back of my lorry but work didnt provide me with a ladder so i climbed up slipped and fall hirting my knee"
How can he sue for being so stupid

*rant over*

Last time my Mum was in, no one in the ward stuck to that rule.

Some Hospitals do have different rules, certainly in the Hospital I work at they are very strict on it. You also get shamed when you walk into the hospital if you still have your mobile on (well most of the time - sometimes it doesn't work). There are posters up about it interefering with medical equipment - which I view with scepticism for the majority of the Hospital. However, it's as much about consideration for the rest of the patients.

Look on the bright side, you won't need any new shoes for a few months, although some new pants might be in order after that fall.

Best of luck with your recovery.

D4VE · 30 Mar 2006 at 15:06

Ouch, nasty made, hope you make a quick recovery

mutters · 30 Mar 2006 at 15:09

Unlucky mate

My dad's employee recently fell of scafholding and smashed his ribs on the bars on the floor below. If he hadn't of done that, he would have fell to his death for sure.

Dodgy working at heights!
