He was on the upper roof and fell off onto the lower one. My DH noticed the gutter above the skylight was bowed out a little. So he must have slid, then held onto the gutter, lost his grip and fell.

Are you going to sue the raccoon? LOL

I'm really glad everyone is alright though. I know birds can be effected by tose things for quite a while!

I'm guessing it was a suicide attempt. If I was a racoon and weighed that much I would be really depressed!

That too funny. If it was a suicide attempt, it probably was not successful. I haven't seen any fat raccoon bodies anywhere in my yard.

At least he didn't stick around to claim bodily injury!!!

How did you know it was a raccoon?

We get raccoons on our roof all the time. My DH noticed that the gutter above the skylight was bowed out so he figured the raccoon started to slide, grabbed the edge of the gutter, then fell. Wish I would have gotten that on video!!!

I think the racoon's name is Tom, as in "peeping Tom" ......

I think I would be actively hunting ol' Rocky!

I am so sorry.

stovesj · 08-11-2008, 10:52 PM

No kidding!!! And...they won't touch the skylight....we have to remove it etc. because they don't want to be liable for any damage it might make. Rocky better beware now....he could very well be lunchmeat!!!
