The story could have ended very badly … An employee of a public works company was the victim of a fall of twelve meters Thursday afternoon in Choisy-le-Roi (Val-de-Marne).
The man was intervening on a vacant lot when he was seized with an urge to defecate. He then positioned himself above a sewer grate, but it gave way dragging him into a fall of twelve meters, reports Le Parisien. The equivalent of a four-story drop.
