how to get out of apartment without

2009 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

As a therapist working in a large scottish city, met a guy who came to me for rehabilitation following badly breaking both his ankles.

On enquiring as to how he did this he informed me that he lived in the apartment blocks facing my work. this consisted 3 levels- shops on ground floor, followed by two levels of apartments.

He lived on the top level, and in order to get out of apartment to see his mistress without his wife knowing would climb out of window and drop to a ledge above the shops on ground level. Apparently he did this regularly, only on this one occasion he missed the ledge falling on to the concrete some 30/40 feet below.

he didnt die but was young a had plenty time left.

I'm borderline on this given that he apparently successfully used this method multiple times, so his injuries may have simply been to lousy luck or timing more than true stupidity, but given the added leeway for PA's I'll accept it. Thanks!

I think he was stupid just for trying it in the first place. What happened to the excuse "time with the guys?" Once he came up with -and acted on- this idea, the Darwin Clock started ticking.
