If the land is dangerous AND accessible then why shouldn't they be held liable for it? Any dangerous land should either be secured and/or sign posted about the dangers efficiently so that it is clear that trespassers accept liability for their own risks.
If there was a hole in a fence somewhere and your kids climbed into it and broke their legs I'm sure you'd sue over it too, I know I would. If this lads done something similar then I hope he does sue. Why should land owners get away with things like that?

Blazey the kid didn't fall down an open mineshaft , motorways and railway tracks are accessible but that doesn't mean children can play on them , and I'm sure you back up the crazy woman in Preston who is suing a local farmer for one million GBPs because she got tupped by some cows whilst walking across a his field . How long before we hear from some Mother of an ADD/goofy kid suing because of the emotional distress caused by a nettle sting in a local park
