Rec climber serious injury
This is the first time I've heard of a Rope and Harness Recreational Tree climber suffering a serious injury falling out of a tree:

happy helmet - Tree Climbing

Here is a detailed summary of the accident and the costly recovery.

It was bound to happen I guess, the climber is doing ok after recovering from a broken back.
