Pea-brained sleeping woman survives cliff fall.
A holidaymaker from Frome narrowly escaped death after rolling over a 100ft cliff in her sleeping bag in Dorset. Rosalyn Barrett survived a 70ft drop after plunging down a cliff-face while wrapped in a blue canvas bag. The 36-year-old managed to avoid serious injury due to her sleeping bag cushioning the fall. (If sleeping bags are so great at cushioning falls, then how come you don't see the SAS dropping out of Chinook helicopters in brightly-coloured Argos sleeping bags?! Eh, think about it!) "After I got to the top I must have lost my bearings because I fell." croaked Rosalyn, stating the bleedin' obvious.
A clearly amused Portland Coastguard said: "I understand she had been walking at the top of the cliff and because she has no common sense, decided to sleep there. Somehow she rolled over the edge in the sleeping bag." Doctors have described her condition as "stable". They added that she was lucky to survive and urged people not to mix alcohol and sleeping bags when on cliff sides. Editorial Comment: Let this be a lesson to all of us, don't drink and sleep! Incidentally, I had a similar near-death experience involving a crate of cider, a space blanket and a field inhabited by a randy bull. |
