Whats the latest talk on it?

Looking at the hotel windows it takes some doing if it wasn't intentional. There's no balcony, and the windows look raised high enough to avoid any sleep walking accident

From what's known right now coming from witnesses is that he was balancing his weight on the horizontal pole on the window while on his mobile phone making a call where he leaned forward too much and lost his balance.  He remains in a stable condition, although with serious head injuries to his skull amongst other broken bones in his body which aren't as serious and to be expected after such a fall.  The doctors right now say that it's miraculous he isn't dead and that he didn't suffer even worse injuries to his head.
