WR's Near Death Experience
WR's Near Death Experience
Yeah, so the regulars all went out to a mill and when we got to about the 7th floor or so WR took a step into a hole that went about 7 stories straight down an empty silo. Luckily he fell forward and his front half didn't go in. He pulled himself out after having Anne take a picture (don't ask). Everyone is alright except for maybe WR's camera. Now we have all learned a valuable lesson to watch where you are going in dark mills at night.

RE: WR's Near Death Experience
Yeah... Seriously, if my right foot hadn't caught the edge of the hole, I would've gone down and I probably would've died. That's seriously the closest to getting myself killed that I've ever come, and I'm still pretty freaked out about it. Plus, I'm really depressed about my fucking thousand dollar camera taking a hard knock. It seems to be working fine, but it's making some funny noises now.

RE: WR's Near Death Experience
Wow, that was fast. Yeah, I was kind of worried about your camera. At least it didn't take the big plunge. I'm glad you didn't either, of course.
That said, someone needs to post that picture, post haste.
