You didn't know about that? Yeah happened a year ago. But yeah, just saying as a comparison 30 feet is still enough to kill. I met people in the spinal unit who fell only a few meters and ended up quads

Update from Baroness yo.

"John Baizley has broken his left arm and left leg. Allen Blickle and Matt Maggioni each suffered fractured vertebrae. All three remain in the hospital as of this writing. Pete Adams has been treated and released from the hospital.

Three of the five crew members who were on the bus have also been treated and released. One member is still undergoing testing. The driver of the bus remains in critical condition."
