So at 06:45 he decided to go take a breath of fresh air on the balcony and leaned over a tad too far.

A great weekend...

Low rails on balconies are usually okay until alcohol is entered into the mix...

We have drunk idiots that have zero clue of the concept of gravity. We don't have a low balcony rail problem. Its a myth. 

 

Post a half dozen pictures of these allegedly low rails that are much lower than European or N American norms

Been here many years pal and although only a six foot guy, saw plenty in older hotels. They did exist, maybe a few remain.
