Kinda hard to foresee a freak accident. In fact I have a sword haning on the wall above the window that my desk sits in front of. However, mine is in a scabbard so it might hurt like heck to have it dfall on me but I doubt it would kill. I never thought about it falling. I only have a couple of nails in the wall and the belt loop ring up by the handle, is on one nail and the pointed end is just resting on another. Now that I think about it, a ball would easily knock it off. But like I said - no sharp points are exposed. .... and wouldn't it fall straight down along the wall, and not far enough out to hit anything? Maybe if it hit the window frame it would ... but it still shouldn't stray too far. He must have been sitting leaning up against the wall. Strange accident.

(I wonder if another kid accidentally stabbed him and when the parents rushed in the kids made up the "ball knocked it off" story.)
