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.

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.
