The bottom line is this, the balcony railings are too low. They are more often than not, beneath the hip of a regular size person. It's a regulatory issue that should be addressed, and that guy who was honoured by the queen for his investigations into this matter should have his honour revoked because he failed to mention anything whatsoever to do with the height of the balcony railings.
Could make the usual assumptions here but need more information. Balconies do seem to attract a few hotel guests who view them as a challenge to gravity.
