Man dies while installing TV antenna

MELBOURNE, AUSTRAILIA (TS) -- A man has died after falling from a roof while trying to install a television antenna in Melbourne's north.
Worksafe spokesman Michael Birt says the man in his 40s was trying to fit the antenna at a house in Carrick Drive at Gladstone Park.
Mr Birt says people need to protect themselves from falls.
"Worksafe's investigating this incident and we'll need to find out exactly what's happened and what the circumstances were," he said.
"But what we need the community to do is if they're working at height, whether they're on a building site or doing some work around somebody's house, they need to have fall protection."


This story probably won't get a very good reception.

That's the whole article. That Mr. Birt is BRILLIANT. You can tell how he got his job as Worksafe spokesman.

"Mr. Brit Mr. Brit! Some idiot just fell off his roof and died! What should we tell the people???"

"Hmmmmmmm... Tell them I said they should protect themselves from falls."

"Another home run sir!"


Wait, I just realized this took place in Austrailia... so, for the sake of any Dingo eaters that may join us at this site today:
