yes i fell this year on oct 23 off a ladder stand 15ft first time in about 30yrs of hunting from trees and it was a bad one.there was a light drizzle i got up in the stand and then decided i wanted to sit in my other stand so being in a hurry i started to climb down with my bow in my hand all i remember is hitting the ground hard i was very dazed when i came too and started to move i could hear and feel bone crumbling around in my lower leg and ankle i knew then this was bad i was about a half mile from my truck i screamed for help many times but no response.so yes i had to crawl all the way to my truck it was hell.i called my wife from the cell in my truck and the way i went to emergency.in the hospital 10 days 2 surgerys i am still off work 2 rods and 15 screws in my lower leg.this will tell me never say it cant happen to me..
