A New Hampshire man was killed in a freak accident when he tied his hammock to a tree — only to have it fall and crush him to death as he was lounging in the wilderness, authorities said. Edward Murphy, 50, had tied the hammock at a tent site near the Wild River Trail in Bean’s Purchase – but it soon crashed down, the New Hampshire Department of Fish and Game said in a press release. “There was no evidence of foul play and all indications point to this being a tragic accident,” the release said.
