Man falls down same cliff twice
A man who was dragged to safety after falling down a riverside cliff regained consciousness only to stumble and fall down the same slope.
George Stastny was on a Sunday stroll along the River Tees at Brignall, County Durham, with his wife Mary when the incident happened, reports the Northern Echo.
During the first tumble, Stastny broke his nose and bloodied his face and eventually passed out after being helped back to the top by his wife.
Realising that she did not have a mobile phone, Mrs Stastny set off on the one-hour run to her friend's house to get help. Meanwhile, her architect husband briefly regained consciousness, stood up, then lost his bearings and stumbled back down the slope.
Arriving at her friend's house to discover that no-one was in, Mrs Stastny broke a window to gain entry in order to phone the police, fire service, ambulance and air ambulance.
However, unbeknown to her, her husband had again come round and clambered to the cliff top before walking to the couple's car. He then drove to his mother-in-law's house, managed to reset his broken nose and called his wife to say he was fine.
Mrs Stastny, who was questioned by police about the "break in" the next day, said that the couple were now able to see the "funny side" of the day's events.
