2 men fight, fall 3 floors but still live
2 men fight, fall 3 floors but still live
"A slugfest between two men over bootleg music CDs ended when both crashed through closed elevator doors yesterday and plunged three stories onto the elevator car in a Manhattan building, police said."
This isn't the first time two this sort of thing has happened. Elevator doors look strong, but I guess they're not.
"'When you get them behind an elevator like that they are usually dead,' said Moran, a 23-year veteran. 'He's lucky to be alive. He is probably going to lose his leg above the ankle. That was nasty.'"
What exactly does "lose his leg above the ankle" mean? Are they going to attach his foot to his pelvis? Doesn't it just mean he's going to lose his entire leg?
