  2. “Police believe the victim died…. after the bottom portion of the tree stand fell out from underneath him during the initial ascent.” Don’t get me wrong, am as happy as the deer (who don’t look up into trees for predators) & who almost got cross-bowed in the gut. But do any of these injured bush-whacking nimrods who buy tree stands, ever sue manufacturers for faulty products?
