Question
![Brynn decides to go on a zip line adventure. She signs a contract before she begins
to go on the zip line, which says that she assumes the risks of accident or injury.
While walking up the steps to grab the zip line, Brynn falls down due to a broken
hand rail on the stairs. Could the property owner be held responsible?
Yes, because a fall due to a faulty handrail was not the type of risk Brynn had
assumed in the contract.
No, because Brynn fell on her own.
O No, because of Brynn's implied assumption of the risk.
No, because of Brynn's express assumption of the risk.
Yes, because she had not yet started zip lining but after she actually grabbed the
line, the company would no longer be held responsible.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F551bb48f-f288-4e92-8605-c591bd09a915%2F57f6500f-b6a6-4c08-a91b-d786114b364b%2Flpmhwej_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
