"The door to the lift, that should have remained locked if the lift was not on the floor that it was called from, opened in error.
"He stepped into the narrow open shaft in the expectation that the lift would be present for him to walk into, as it should have been."

Hoping a speedy recovery, but surely you would have noticed if the lift wasn't there!

He's lucky to be alive after falling 3 floors.

Here's wishing him a speedy recovery.

ouch, that moss hurt.


but look at the bright side, where's there's blame, there's a claim.

just goes to show, that most domestic accidents happen at home and probably more injuries than in car racing.

So in 6months time, Sir Stirling will be doing an advert saying that he got worse injuries at home than in car racing and therefore everyone should have a go

Heres to a speedy recovery!

Don't know about anyone else, but personally I'd briefly check that the lift was there before stepping into the shaft! I know he's getting on a bit, but I would have thought it difficult to mistake darkness, concrete and a bunch of steel cables for the interior of your own lift. Strange one, that. Maybe I should read the story...
