ledge

The barefoot man was brought down in a cherry picker as Big Ben struck midnight, after more than 16 hours on a ledge several metres up the tower.

Video shared on social media shows a barefoot man stood on a ledge several metres up Elizabeth Tower, which houses Big Ben.

Now, Ferguson sat on a short ledge outside while paramedics struggled — and failed — to save her life.

When she sits anywhere — on a couch or the ledge of a wooden stand for her dresses — she crosses her long legs with practiced perfection.

The women took cover on a ledge as it started snowing, sharing the only sleeping bag they had.
