Title: Fell off ladder, blood and guts, dont look if you're squeamish.

Just found this on another forum I use

Quote

Fell off a ladder at work and landed on it sideways. Took some pictures of it for me on his phone while waiting at the hospital. Multiple compound fracture, looked like it was about to fall off.

As a newbie, makes me want to hurry even more to wfp.  And that sort of injury is getting off lighter than some who have fallen off a ladder.
Even when we see the arguments about which is better - wfp v trad - it just seems common sense that pole is the best choice when your bones, spine, neck or life are considered.
