death despite flying

The article claims you don't turn to stone if you fly down a hole. However, that that just happened to me. "While falling, you touch the corpse...". Tjr 21:10, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

Actually it's just confusingly worded; testing it, you won't be stoned if you fly down stairs while burdened or worse (which would normally cause you to touch the corpse), but jumping down a hole does in fact kill you regardless. I'll reword it, as I thought that was safe too. -Ion frigate 00:19, August 10, 2010 (UTC)
