So, it's a nice day, and I decide to take my daughter to the movies. Going into the shopping center, we're walking toward the escalator when I hear a loud thud / splat. My daughter caught the motion out of the corner of her eye.. Guy, sitting on a railing on the 3rd level falls over backwards.

Something no one really needs to see, and how he didn't land on someone (mall was crowded), I don't know.

The only reason he is alive is because he hit the 2nd floor railing that slowed him. Police report says he was in his 40s, is now in serious condition. Just prior to his gravity experiment, a security guard saw him on the railing and told him to get down.

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
