Leader took a ground fall at second from last quickdraw from the top. (i'm guessing 10m+) It was a big fall with a loud bang. He landed on his feet and was in a stable conscious condition. The paramedics arrived within 10mins or so. I really hope he is going OK. I would be interested in finding out more about the accident. I was disappointed to see some climbers continuing to climb nearby the scene immediately afterwards. The rubber matting he landed on would have made an enormous difference to the extent of his injuries. Stay safe folks, don't become complacent because you are in a gym. Remember the 'lead pass' does not protect you from mistakes and accidents.
