I made the assumption (oops!) that he secured it to the studs and used it for my TV. A few weeks later, while watching a movie, I had the great pleasure of scrambling across the room to catch my TV as the expanding anchors he had used ripped through the sheetrock.

So, now you have heard of a TV falling off of a wall. LOL!!
