Be careful when harvesting fruit!

When you pick fruits from your garden, pay attention to safety guidelines and avoid accidents!
I feel obliged to warn about this because a resident of Berlin, Germany caused a tragic accident today while picking cherries from the tree. One of the cherries slipped the harvester's hands and fell... (No kidding, this is not staged.)

Haha I know this is a little weird. But a dropped cherry hitting the bucket right at the edge and sticking there is quite unlikely and I decided to record this rare event.

Indeed. It was perfectly ripe and I think it fell down more than a meter. I stood on a ladder reaching out to one of the cherries above me and the bucket hang on the ladder way below...
