Right. I wonder if the floor above has the same style guard rail, or just a cable barrier.

It's apparent to me from the pics on page 1 that the end stanchion of the cable barrier failed at its connection point and then swung out of the hole the vehicle made and broke the window on the floor below.

That picture is from the floor below where the car exited the garage.

I know but still, I think it's safe to assume that's the same barrier setup as where he went out at.

From WDSU

While few details have been made available, the NOPD confirmed that the truck was on the fifth or sixth level when it crashed through a steel cable barrier.

Terrell Lewis, a parking attendant working at a ground-level lot across Poydras Street, said he heard the breaking glass and turned to see the driver attempting to scramble toward the rear of the slowly tilting vehicle before its fatal plunge.

"I started seeing the truck coming out slowly," Lewis said. "The way his body was positioned, I could see he was trying to climb back for safety. The driver was trying to climb out, but it was too late for him.

"It was like he couldn't move fast enough."

The valet drivers from the surrounding hotels speed around those corners in these parking garages. I've seen it first hand (Mine is on Magazine exactly the same). Wouldn't surprise me if he saw an oncoming car from the other corner and lost control turning.

And no pics GFY


you don't have the right to post her pic anyway, so you couldn't post a pic even if you wanted. BOOM.

only the person in the pic has the right to give permission for their pic to be on this site.

So you are the one who can GFY because you don't have the right to post said pic.

I'll make sure I contact Katy Perry and get permission before I post another one of her pics here.

The Alexander Cranford fishing thread yesterday that turned into a "I Love Sheba" thread. Not that there's anything wrong with that. I think she's luscious looking.

When I used to live in the hood, they'd run into Vics and do shots between parking cars.

Sheba might have a little cream in her coffee, but whatever genetics are involved, it's a great mix.
