The vicinity of a single building in downtown Yokohama suddenly became a danger zone one afternoon when a bizarre chain reaction of falls left four people injured.

The incident began shortly after 4 p.m. on 21 January, when police received a call that a man in his 40s or 50s had fallen from the rooftop of a five-story building. In addition to the height he also reportedly had fallen in a very narrow gap between the neighboring building.

After the initial fall, a woman in her 40s looked out a window on the third floor of the same building to see what happened. However, in doing so, she lost her balance and also fell out. At the same time another man was looking through a window on the second floor to see what happened.

The woman who fell out the third floor window hit the man in his 30s in the head, while he was looking through the second floor window  She then hit another man, also in his 30s, who was standing on the ground.

It's a fortunate ending with no deaths. The curious folks looking out the window cushioned the fall of the people above them.

This story is like a fairy tale, that so many people fell because of one person.....

How to have so many people falling from height at a place?

Are they standing at a place with no railing or barriers?

Buildings side by side with narrow gaps in between them actually very scary to live in

I will hv sleepless nights living in such a place
