The article mentioned that Chase bank is involved in helping him. My Wife works for Chase bank. I'll ask her about this, if they have anything at her branch.

Yup, this is very sad, and an eye-opener to all of us to be careful. Not a lot of people look at it as potentially dangerous, so they just throw around the weight without worrying about what could happen if something goes wrong. I'm not assuming this guy did, as it was obviously an accident, I'm just speaking in general terms.

We're in high risk doing anything, any day though. Just have to be careful. These things happen. My thoughts are with him and his family.
