Chan Kwai-mui, what an odd way to die.
Chan Kwai-mui, should have been watching the sky.

Media reports say the women were "found in a heap" by a security guard.

I'm going to hell for laughing at that.

It's common for people to fall of their balconies there.....?

But.... why hasn't anyone done anything about this?

You know - issue everyone with a piece of rope and a couple of nails, or something? Maybe, perish the thought, a better railing?

"In 2007, Chan was left a widow when a crane collapsed at a construction site, killing her husband and another worker."

Somebody was trying to tell them something years ago. Guess she finally got the last message. It said...'Look out below'!

I believe they meant it's common to see people hanging their laundry outside. But go forth and sell railings!

It's called bad journalism and sentence structure.

No. I laughed at the headline and throughout the article. The found in a heap comment was just the icing on a delicious cake chock full of humor.

Falling from a great height is a messy way to die. All that energy you gain on the way down -- if you hit a flat surface your body explodes like a ziplock bag filled with spaghetti.

It's already hard to tell them apart from each other when they're still alive, how will they find out who is who in that mixed up human remains?

Balcony collapse is a serious problem. Dozens of people every year are hurt due to BC--some evn die. I think with enough awareness and education, we may be able to eliminate BC in our lifetime.

"Media reports say the women were 'found in a heap' by a security guard."

Brutal.

A woman's husband dies from a crane tragedy, in and of itself not a very likely thing to have happen, and then she is killed herself, only 3 years later, when another woman falls 27 stories, and lands directly on top of her such that they are "found in a heap."

Not a very lucky woman -- or very lucky, indeed.
