another lateral thinking question?

An Italian man went to the top of a sixty metre cylindrical tower and lept off,… but lived… in good health!! he did not have a parachute, if he had jumped from the other side of the building he would have died. How did he survive?

any help with this question would be greatly appreciated not that much into lateral thinking thanks

It was probably the leaning tower of Pisa – he rolled down the sloping side instead of falling from the opposite side.

If the tower was a part of a fortification, say at the top of a hill, leaping to the inside of the fortification would cause him to land on the parapet or ledge, while a leap to the outside would cause him to fall over 196 feet to injury or death.
