RE: Myth or Fact? #20 – A Penny dropped off the Empire State Building kills you + Steem BTCC Voting reminder
But, having lived in NYC, there is always that one story about the icicle that fell off a building and killed someone. Always makes me wary.
This one is deadly for sure
Maybe the penny thing is more a Fable to make people aware to look up xP
Lot of people throw a penny to make a wish
New way to recognize Steemian on da streets

Icicles can grow to a very significant mass under favorable conditions; a pound or more. Obviously they have fairly little drag, so factor in any serious height and they can definitely injure or possibly kill someone.
