Could you post or link more details? *Lunatic*, n. One whose delusions are out of fashion.
One man broke his leg and another 32 people suffered minor injuries during an emergency evacuation drill of the new A380 superjumbo in Germany. Plane owner Airbus said the exercise - a key step which the A380 must take to prove its airworthiness - was a "great success" despite the injuries. About 850 passengers and 20 crew were evacuated from the plane in 80 seconds.

This is my first post here, so I wanted first to tell you how much I enjoy this place in general, and specifically the "technological" diaries (planes, trains, clocks).
DoDo, you'll find actual stories of people who did participate in this test at flightglobal.com :
