He already needed a mobility scooter. Then kena skull fracture and bleeding in the brain. It's better that he dies, than continue life as a crippled vegetable.

Also, his fucking children (I assume he had children) should've insisted that he wore a helmet.

Lastly, what the fuck is HDB doing? Why are their lifts having so much problems? Charge so much for HDB flats, and let the estate turn into a slum.

His kids pulled the plug because they were too cheapskate to keep their father on life support?

In Pasir Ris New Town, an elderly 77 year old man died of his head injuries after falling off a HDB lift which was misaligned and stopped 20 cm above ground level.

The man had entered the lift with his back facing the door while on his mobility scooter. Without realising that the lift stopped 20 cm higher than usual, as the elderly man reversed out of the lift, he fell backwards and hit the back of his head causing a skull fracture and bleeding in the brain.

He was rushed to the hospital but 15 hours later died of his injuries.

When queried, Pasir Ris Punggol Town Council chairman said investigations into the incident was ongoing and they were checking on the lift's past maintenance record.

Cannot be blamed on the pap. Must be WP's fault.

My grassroots buddies in that ward have contacted some lawyers to standby. We will not let that family enrich themselves from the clumsiness of their dead father.

Alamak not the first time it has malfunctioned in this manner. Already one to two years and somebody even tripped before. What kind of maintenance standard is this? Really must wait for serious mishaps before any attention is given on residents' complaints?

"It was not that the first time the lift had caused problems, she said. She and other neighbours noticed that in the past one to two years, the lift would sometimes not be level with the floor outside.

Residents have complained about the condition of the lift, which is around 24 years old. But nothing much was done, she said.

Madam Kwek Sar Moi, 78 - wife of the late Mr Lim - also tripped and fell earlier this year because the lift was not level with the floor outside."

Maybe, the old fart's head was crushed by the lift and he did not reverse out but reverse in and when lift opened, he started to move and pull brake when saw lift floating above ground but momentum flipped him forward and landed his head on the lift edge and his head got crushed?

Possible?

"He was not bleeding, but the back of his head was hurting, she added.

The family took the old man to Changi General Hospital, where he threw up thrice, said Madam Wang. He later fell into a coma.

CT scans and an X-ray showed that he had a cerebral haemorrhage. Internal bleeding affected half of his brain, said Mr Lim."

The wheelchair manufacturer should be taken to court. It should have designed a back rest to have a head rest high enough to protect his head from such common incidents or old folks should wear helmets when riding such flippy vehicles.
