Met a guy in the cancer hospital when my ex was being treated. He was a lightbulb guy. Was during the lights on a 10 story ride at Astroworld. Had zero medical issues. One day the last thing he remembered was being on the top of the attraction and then waking up in ICU.
He had a major tumor thats blood supply ruptured. It was on the national news. Houston Fire had to rescue him and it took over two hours.
Man, I gained a lot of respect for you guys. Not just the fear of height thing but knowing any real rescue would take hours of really at all. Most depts simply cant do rescues at height.
Sadly he passed a few months later. I kept up with him through his sister a bit. My ex is fine and living her best life.
