Delta 757 Aborts Takeoff, 208 Evacuate In Atlanta

Long ago, at my last ATC facility, SWA had an engine bird strike while taking off. Was just past V1 but made a hasty decision to abort anyhow. Ran off the end of the runway, down a slight hill, came to a stop very near the edge of a very steep drop, sitting at an odd angle. Airstairs could reach it. Only damage was burning tires which the fire dept extinguished immediately. Only way to exit was the slides. Slides were steep because of the way the airplane came to rest. On male passenger, in his haste, caught his foot at the top of the slide, went down forward, and ended up breaking his leg. SWA said because of that and the definition of accident vs incident, this was their first official accident. The airplane was undamaged so no accident by definition there. However, broken leg, passenger injury, accident. As I recall, reversers were not used. Much discussion later about that.
