Authorities say a man's fall from a bluff in northwest Arkansas might have been deadly, had it not been for some trees.

It happened at Hawksbill Crag in Newton County, where the sheriff's office says a pair of campers went stargazing.

One fell off the bluff and survived, having hit several tree branches on the way down.
