JamesThresher Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Yes, i was there at the time, hope he was ok it was a bit of a fall although he got higher than any other flag climber i've seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clockworkpurple Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 i saw some complete w*nker climb one of the flagpoles by Brothers and take the flag apart on purpose. everyone was booing at him but he looked very impressed with himself. f**kwit. (incidentally the next day the flag was mended, and i hope HE was broken) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innana Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 I heard that the person who climbed the flag at JazzWorld and fell off was taken to hospital in quite a bad way. No update on how the plonker is. The flag crew were out early the next morning greasing the poles, to try and stop anyone else climbing up and hurting themselves (and damaging the flags).

drat Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 I didn't see it but my girlfriend did. Apparently it snapped when he got to the wooden part of the pole. Silly thing to do, but hope he is OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

random_man Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 would this be on the thursday afternoon? if so sorry people it was my friend that i was with - he is perfectly ok and felt really guilty afterwards! We just found it funny the BOO he got! He didnt mean to break anything - he's just one of these ultra competitive people who when we said i bet you cant reach the top he just had too try! Had some great bruises after though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theowl81 Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Actualy it wasnt your breaking the flag that upset me - it was my sheer hysterical and quite uncontrollable laughter - Plonker! I hadnt realised just how evil I was until I heard the thud! Glad there was no long term damage, we were pleased to see you were conscious as we left.
