Even I can get over that one without incident.

However, if someone does manage to take a header off it, that's a nasty drop.

Just get someone fat to stand on the ladders below it, thus blocking the hole.  Sadly I can't volunteer as I'll still be in Matienzo and the amount of puking up I've done out here, I'm not actually that fat anymore. :dry:
