Suicidal man sues manufacturers after rope snaps

A suicidal man who failed to hang himself because the rope snapped is planning to sue the manufacturers.

According to local daily Libertatea, 45-year-old Victor Dodoi from Botosani in northern Romania, tried to hang himself from the light fitting in his living room.

But the rope broke under his weight and brought the light and part of the ceiling crashing down with him.

Dodoi told the newspaper that he now plans to sue the local company that produces the rope.

He said: "I want to sue them. They have caused me more misery than I felt before."

a lawsuit like that would only work in the US.

for serious consequences for ridiculous lawsuits...

Kind of like the burglar, who fell through a skylight, then sued the home-owners...

Sad part is...he won...
