Quoting: Hawk-02 The body of 53-year-old Kirk R. Jones was pulled out of the water June 2 in Youngstown, where the Niagara River feeds into Lake Ontario. The empty ball had been found earlier in the rapids above the American Falls, one of three falls known collectively as Niagara Falls. New York state park police said they believe Jones was in Niagara Falls on April 19 and may have tried to go over the falls in the large ball. "The attempted stunt was unsuccessful, which resulted in the demise of Mr. Jones," the park police said in a news release. Jones, at the time an unemployed salesman from Canton, Michigan, gained celebrity in October 2003, when he became the first person known to survive the 180-foot plunge over Niagara Falls without a safety device. In 1960, 7-year-old Roger Woodward was swept over the falls wearing a life jacket and survived. [link to www.msn.com] Play stupid games, Win stupid prizes... |
