    What the hell was grandpa thinking? At age 70 he has no business on any roof. This was a residential job so safety lanyards probably aren’t required. He’s a liability to himself and others. Old people are a significant drain on our already crappy economy due to their dis-proportionate need for medical treatment and resources. Old idiots like this just amplify that situation.

    Yeah, I guess we just stuff the aged into nursing homes, lose the key and forget about them. Perhaps, Amy is just jealous that she can’t climb up onto a roof.

    At first, I thought he tripped at the curb & fell on the grass, then I discovered that he slipped off the roof, but the cause of the fall was not determined. Oh, and Amy, haven’t you heard, 70 is the new 40!!!

    70 year olds cost us enough money without the added risk of falling off a roof. When you have been blessed with living that long you should exercise some common sense and not think you can do what you did at 25. This guy is an idiot.
