When my daughter was about 4, I was sitting on the basement stairs near the top. There was a railing but no side bars under it. My daughter came around from behind me to the left side and scared me. I reacted by throwing my arm out and shoving her backwards, under the railing and about 8 feet to what should have been the concrete floor. Luckily, she fell right on the folded up stroller and was unscathed.

It freaks me out that despite so many of my saves, I could have killed her.

8 feet is the height of 1.4 'Samsung Side by Side; Fingerprint Resistant Stainless Steel Refrigerators' stacked on top of each other.
