After what happened at the Home Run Derby on Monday night, we as a baseball-loving nation need to run a check on our priorities.
Wherever "catching a baseball" ranks — and it's high, apparently — it ought to be made less important.
Keith Carmickle — the man pictured above hanging on by his right arm, with his baseball glove dangling from his left hand — almost fell about 20 feet to a pool deck below at Chase Field after he chased a home run hit to center by Prince Fielder(notes).
Thankfully, he didn't catch the ball. Or fall. But he almost went over completely. As the Associated Press reports, he was saved by his brother and a friend.

The photo's and video shown in the article just show's the entire story, this guy is very lucky, not sure how nobody from security noticed the guy standing on a table though.
