A man plummeted 40 feet down a hole while working at a construction site on one of the U.S.-Mexico border wall prototypes in south San Diego County Wednesday, officials confirmed.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) spokesperson Carlos Diaz said the worker survived the fall without serious injuries and promptly returned to work at the site in Otay Mesa.

I'm not sure if this was posted though it is from 3 days ago.
40 feet is a big fall to not get hurt.

I agree. We’re not hearing some things here.
Perhaps we will later.

Hmmm....Perhaps we need a border trench.

Maybe he was able to try to grab the sides on the way down and that slowed his fall?

There was probably a trampoline at the bottom.

Likely a drug or illegal immigrant smuggle tunnel remnant.

"Diaz said the worker was not following protocol and, as he walked backward at the site..."Paints a pretty vivid picture.

Kudos to the guy for going back to work. He could have claimed a serious injury and gotten long term disability.

Yes! That sounds like it will be rock solid.

This man needs a Presidential medal. He should be the first to get the Kick Ass and Take Names Later Workers Medal (His should be solid gold). Trump team are you listening. Major opportunity.

Probably landed on a bale of Mary Jane.

No, the article clearly say “plummeted”. You don't think they'd get an important detail like that wrong, do you?
