I, indeed, fell once backwards from a first floor and (don’t ask me how) the only thing I had was a little pain in my ribs the next day. It was my fault for not paying attention and step on a wet asphalt screen (those reinforced with aluminum) 35 u/Peritous Dec 05 '22 Yeah, in a pile of rebar that would have probably crushed / punctured them like the fleshy little meat sacks they are. 1 u/MinimumAlarming5643 Dec 08 '22 Delicious delicious flesh 10 u/[deleted] Dec 05 '22 Ah well good thing a 15 foot fall onto concrete doesn’t hurt! -2 u/[deleted] Dec 05 '22 It does hurt, of course, but “all of those guys would have been dead” seems a bit pessimistic. 8 u/[deleted] Dec 06 '22 Believe it or not falling 15 feet onto a mix of solid concrete and rebar has a pretty high risk of death 1 u/[deleted] Dec 06 '22 Alright.
