Granny attempts virtual Cyberspace suicide – but fails
She wears her nappies ready for the big drop

With a nappy to catch her adrenalin and a cotton bonnet to protect her skull should she fall during her 175 ft descent down the ICL Tower in Manchester, 82-year-old Granny Molli Turner is about to step out into the unknown. Sorry, but we don't have the pics to prove she made it to the ground without messing up the pavement...but sources tell us she made it OK. Oh baby...we're almost beside ourselves with frothy contentment -- just don't let that moustache put you off. OK?! ®
