He also tripped over a water hose and shattered a garden gnome.

Definitely a bad run of luck.

Nominee for the Darwin Award, maybe?

Stupidity cannot be cured with money, or through education, or by legislation. Stupidity is not a sin, the victim can't help being stupid. But stupidity is the only universal capital crime: the sentence is death, there is no appeal, and execution is carried out automatically and without pity.

Dollars to old grass clipping some enterprising ambulance chaser will find some way to sue the homeowner. And the court will accept the case.
Then the homeowners insurance will settle out of court.
Then home owner’s insurance will go through the roof.

Any takers

Florida’s Castle Doctrine law prohibits such suits.
