Description
60.130 Torts; Assumption of Risk When a person knowingly and voluntarily takes a risk of physical injury, the danger of which is so obvious that the act of taking such risk, in and of itself, amounts to a failure to exercise ordinary care for one's own safety, that person cannot hold another liable for injuries proximately caused by such action even though the injuries may be in part attributable to the negligence of the other person. Southland Butane Ga. Co. v. Blackwell, 211 Ga. 665 (1955) Doctors Hospital of Augusta Inc. v. Poole, 144 Ga. App. 184, 185 (1977) Johnson v. Jackson, 140 Ga. App. 252, 258(5) (1976) Little Rapids Corp. v. McCamy, 218 Ga. App. 111 (1995) (Note: Assumption of risk does not extend to assuming the risk of the negligent act of another.) Vaughn v. Pleasent, 266 Ga. 862 (1996) Sutton v. Sumner, 224 Ga. App. 857 (1997) Muldovan v. McEachern, 271 Ga. 805 (1999); willful or wanton acts of a defendant
