December 21, 2005 - 10:13PM
A man who slipped while trying to handstand on a second floor railing at a Perth nightclub and landed on another club-goer on the ground floor has been charged with causing grievous bodily harm.
Luke Ouwendyk, 21, allegedly attempted the feat about 12.30am (WST) on December 3 at the Paramount Nightclub in Northbridge.
Kylee Schoonens, 25, was walking from the nightclub's beer garden into the nightclub when Mr Ouwendyk slipped from the railing and landed directly on her.
Ms Schoonens suffered a fractured vertebrae. She will be required to wear a back brace for several months and undergo intensive therapy for months.
Mr Ouwendyk fractured his left collarbone. He has since been charged with grievous bodily harm and will appear before the Perth Magistrates Court next week.
