Dr. Stearns and I began our climb. I don't believe we had actually reached the top when the rope anchor slipped where it had been tied on the ground. All I remember is that I felt the tower begin to move and I immediately realized what had happened.

I was told later that both of us began to climb down the tower as fast as we could. The next thing l remember is trying to get out of the tower and being rushed to a medical clinic.
