I think it'd be quite easy to loose your footing on that slope especially in a coat that restricts the legs.

Did you see the picture of the bank? Its several feet sheer drop, it's winter, the water is freezing cold, she was wearing a coat that restricts the movement of her legs. Water is dangerous at the best of times, but those conditions make it almost inevitable that there would be a tragic outcome

Five unanswered questions in the disappearance of Nicola Bulley (DM):

• What happened to Ms Bulley between 9.10am and 9.20am on the day she disappeared?
• Did she put her phone down on the bench herself to rush to her dog's aid?
• Why have none of Ms Bulley's possessions been found?
• If she fell into the River Wyre, why was her dog Willow 'bone dry'?
• If she was attempting to retrieve Willow's ball, where is it now and why hasn't it been found?

Possible the Dog made her go
near the water,

Police Chief said


10 Miles of the River to search

[Crimson Dynamo]

maybe she took a heart attack and fell in

[Crimson Dynamo]

mind you no one would lave a phone on a bench and say go to the waters edge with the dog

Police said as it was multi call,
she may have gone near the dog
fast.

you would though if you were on a call which she was you would put the phone down if you thought the dog was getting too close to the water, so you had two hands free, it was a steep drop to the river bank, she could have tripped over something and fell in knocking herself out, there is literally a 10 minute window since she was last seen and when the phone was found on the bench and they have checked all the exit routes and there is no sign of her leaving the area, she is in the water unfortunately

I would have thought they would have found her by now though ....if she was in the water??. The river didn't have a strong current.

They said the river is tidal so I assume that means strong currents

[Nicola Bulley: Police believe missing dog walker fell into river
as investigation focuses on 10-minute window

As part of the search for Ms Bulley,
police are also looking for the clothing
she wore when she disappeared,
including an ankle-length black
quilted gilet jacket, and a black
Engelbert Strauss waist-length coat,
which was worn underneath.]



Could she be in the Irish Sea by now?


So Tragic,

Spoiler:

[arista]

As she can swim,
I think what our great
Cherie, who said she may have hit her head
in the river.

I think that may have been the reason.


It is so tragic.

[rusticgal]

Possibly the dog got off it leash and went towards the river and she stop it going in the river and maybe tripped and fell. F she slipped they would probably see an indication of that.

Also going into the river with wellies a jacket and a long padded gilet would have made swimming difficult especially if there was an undercurrent.

a friend of mines daughter was walking along the edge of a cliff and lost her footing and fell to her death. That bank at the edge of the river is very steep and if she lost her footing, dressed in the clothes she was wearing, there was basically no chance of survival

[Cherie]

The suggestion now is she went to retrieve a tennis ball that had gone in the river and she fell in and was dragged down by the heavy clothing she was wearing

that is quite the conjectrure

well not really as in pics you can see she has a tennis ball and if it was a regular thing that she took the ball and the ball is missing it would explain why she went to the water and why the dog was dry

As a dive instructor for many years I can say wet clothes do not weigh you down. To do that the water within the clothes would have to be denser than the surrounding water, which of course it isn't. The wet clothes just makes it more difficult to swim ie it takes more effort !!!

it really doesn't matter what people think. They will no doubt find the body eventually, and that will be that
