SCA Fatality
This is disturbing.

Very sad news and my condolences to friends and family.

Seems like a fluke accident, and fluke accidents are hard to anticipate and prevent by their very nature.
they really should turn off the comment section on things like this. wonder what it was made out of; rattan shouldn't work like that.

I agree the comment section on the linked story does have some gross and insensitive posts, but also I read at least a handful of respectful ones, but it's unfortunately the low standard set by internet trolls ! ( Just ignore the comment section and don't even bother reading them )

Obviously any comments here should remain respectful and also not wade into too much speculation about what when wrong.

Safety suggestions might be better discussed in a general new Topic not directly related to this very unfortunate accidental death, and only after a decent interval of time.

But as a related community people adding their condolences seems like a good thing to do, I think.
