So how do you see this Happening?

It could be he fell from the Third floor.

He fell from the third floor and Then bounced off that second Floor,

Over the railing and down the Ground? I don't think that Happened.

Well, so maybe he was leaning Over that railing there,

Say, bringing up that box of Nails,
