A FATHER and his son fell over 100ft to their deaths in a horror work accident after the platform they were on suddenly collapsed.
David Bottomley, 53, and his son Clayton, 17, were working on the exterior cladding of one of the two towers that make up the Unity building in Liverpool.

An inquest into their deaths at the city’s Gerard Majella Courthouse heard from onlookers who told police about the moments before a brake failed on the platform.
Jack Watson, a paramedic, was in his flat when he saw David fatally injured on the floor.
