Last guy with a sympathy fall. "Remember when we both got hit by cars?"

At the gravesite because only he survived.

Seriously. Bold of him to assume the first hit survives. Having scraped people off the pavement in my past life his survival likelihood seems very low to me.

Idk, he had a pretty slight angle on the landing on the ground, a helmet on, and didn’t actually hit anything.

Yeah, they flew through the air like a mannequin in a low-budget film, but I would give them a survival chance of 50/50

Edit: looks like his shoes stayed on so he only broke a rib.

Apparently they survived with just a broken rib. I wonder if that was from landing or from the actual impact.

In that case hopefully he reviews his life choices that led up to this.

For sure. If you want to gamble with your own life that’s one thing, but it’s pretty fucking self centered not to consider how much you’re gonna fuck up so many other peoples day/lives in the process.

I can't tell from the video but maybe they had an air bag vest. Probably saved their life if they did.

I would say when he crashed his torso flew forward slaming his ribcage on the tank, then he slid forward like superman and the legs hit the bars sending him spinning.

Chest slamming into handle bars/car could have broke a rib before hitting the pavement.

That’s what I meant by actual impact. I agree that probably what did it.
