Two protesters went up a tree in New Orleans. One came down of their own accord, the other came down a lot faster. "Lloyd" and "Heart" as they were known by fellow protesters were taking a stand against the construction of a $25 million golf course in Sharp Park. Heart abandoned the tree after a few days, while things were going swimmingly for Loyd until a hammock flipped over.
Here's how it happened according to Golf Digest:
Witnesses say Jonathan "Lloyd" Boover flipped out of a hammock perched midway up the tree. He appeared to injure his nose, leg and foot, and was eventually taken away by an ambulance.
The man was okay. He waved to onlookers as he was stretchered away. Now the construction will continue unabated while the man recovers from his injuries. Unfortunately it's a double-whammy for the protester, who now has a warrant for disturbing the peace and trespassing to deal with in addition to his fall.
