His family have issued a statement in which they condemn use of the phrase ‘three or four seconds fall to his death’, drawing attention to the fact the recently departed achieved a time of 2.7 seconds, as a result of which he has posthumously won an entry in next year’s Guinness Book of Records, subject to the family providing the video evidence, which they say they will gladly do, subject to the publishers describing the entry as ‘fastest cliff fall’ rather than the proposed ‘fattest bastard to fall off a cliff’.
The video was also believed to show the man’s entire life flashing through his mind during his short journey, but closer examination revealed it was seagull poo.
