Christmas lights fall - UPDATED

A man fell from a ladder yesterday while installing Christmas lights in the town of Ashford, Kent, in the UK.

The man, said to be in his late 30s, was originally said to have been working from the van mounted lift, that he or his employer, Essex-based Festive Impact Lighting, had rented from Facelift. However we later discovered that he was working from a ladder when he slipped and fell backwards hitting his head on the ground.

He was out cold for around five minutes before being taken to hospital where and later released.
