Balcony Safety

I just had an idea about balcony safety. Looking at a picture of the balconies on Knights Tower, Deptford, from which Students Miguel Ranos, 18, and Anastasia Tutik, 19, fell to their deaths, I was thinking, what if the balconies were arranged in alternating columns, with an exit one side only, glass at the front. Then I had a second idea, balconies stepped down the side of the building like a stepladder's rungs, so if you fell from each one you only fell one level. You don't have to make the entire building pyramid shape, just the balconies.

or the same in a V shape down the building

Or a series of V shapes.

The story of the couple's fall from the sixth floor balcony is reported in Daily Mail, Telegraph, Huffington Post, Express.co.uk Independent, Telegraph, Mirror Ninemsn, Australian and Indian papers in the English language and worldwide in local languages, no doubt in Spanish in Mexico and Spanish speaking countries and in Russian in Russia and elsewhere on Wednesday June 11th and Thursday June 12th 2014.
   Too many people fall from balconies.
