It was also held that although the D may have been aware of the danger and aware of the presence of trespassers, the risk was not one which it was reasonable to expect protection. Furthermore, the injury sustained by the C was because of what he had done rather than the state of the premises and therefore no duty of care was owed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cIt is a terrible tragedy to su\u00ader such dreadful injury in consequence of<br>a relatively minor act of carelessness. It came nowhere near the stupidity of Luke Ratcli\u00ad, a student who climbed a fence at 2.30 a m on a December morning to take a running dive into the shallow end of a swimming pool (see Ratcli\u00ad v McConnell [1999] 1 WLR 670) or John Donoghue, who dived into Folkestone Harbour from a slipway at midnight on 27 December after an evening in the pub: Donoghue v Folkestone Properties Ltd [2003] QB 1008. John Tomlinson\u2019s mind must often recur to that hot day which irretrievably changed his life. He may feel, not unreasonably, that fate has dealt with him unfairly. And so in these proceedings he seeks financial compensation: for<br>the loss of his earning capacity, for the expense of the care he will need for the loss of the ability to lead an ordinary life. But the law does not provide such compensation simply on the basis that the injury was disproportionately severe in relation to one\u2019s own fault or even not one\u2019s F own fault at all. Perhaps it should, but society might not be able to afford to compensate everyone on that principle, certainly at the level at which such compensation is now paid. The law provides compensation only when the injury was someone else\u2019s fault. In order to succeed in his claim, that is what Mr Tomlinson has to prove. \u201c p.26 D-F<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Legal Principles and Key Points Facts of the
