If that's really true, it's the weirdest story I've ever heard.

On the other hand, it sounds a lot like the story of the guy holding a rope that goes up to a pulley on a ledge, where it's attached to a barrel full of bricks. His partner pushes the barrel off the ledge, it's so heavy that as it falls, it pulls the guy on the ground upward, where he's struck by the falling barrel, which breaks apart when it hits the ground, releasing the bricks, and the guy falls to the ground...
