I’m guessing it wasn’t free-fall, but a miracle nonetheless!

Science may never be able to explain what protected Moreno when the platform he and his brother were using atop an Upper East Side apartment tower broke free and fell to the ground.

Okay, not completely free-fall. Reduce the Gs at ground level, you may have a chance.

I read about this accident the day after it happened(in the local paper). Witnesses said he laid on top of the scaffolding and rode it down like a surfboard. The board took a lot of the shock. It's a miracle that he lived. His brother was thrown free and died on impact.
