Good question. The landings on every floor would prevent a fall down "several flights." zuul Sep 2022 #2

Unless he was dropped (meaning shoved headfirst) down the stairwell shaft. That would do it.

"accidents", just shoot them. Nobody believes they are
accidents anyway.

Second floor landing of Victorian. Looking at phone while walking done an unlit hall after front porch wine party with neighbors. Foot goes off landing into the abyss, head first then ass-weighted down 7 steps to first floor landing. No memory of how it happened. Result: massive ass bruise, broken wrist, head smack, smashed glasses, partially detached retina.

I'm an idiot. No connection to Putin.

Fast healer: O- blood type.
Wrist excellent.
Eye 20/20 after retinal repair then related cataract surgery (from 20/1400 -- not a typo).
Other eye 20/20 after related cataract surgery.
No broken Victorian elements in house.

Where you basically have a square shaft, and the stairs go up the walls with handrails. the space in the middle is open and goes from top to bottom.

It's like falling out a window, but from the inside.
