LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) -- A Lexington man has died after his folding chair collapsed, causing him to fall into the Red River Gorge.

The accident occurred early Saturday at Donnie Miller's cabin near the Wolfe County-Lee County line in eastern Kentucky.

The Lexington Herald-Leader quoted Miller's friend, Lee Atinay, saying Miller's brother and brother-in-law had gone camping with him, but had already gone to bed and didn't realize Miller had fallen to his death until Saturday morning after they awakened.

Miller's body was found Saturday afternoon, 80 to 100 feet below where he fell into the gorge.

Miller was 56 and was a financier.
