I can't find a single account of anyone having fallen while kissing the Blarney Stone. But a pilgrim was reputed to have slipped to his death when trying to kiss the stone by hanging over the edge. Nowadays you go out through a hole on your back and kiss the underside of the Blarney Stone. You do need to be fit. There is an iron cage to prevent you falling.
