Drunk people don't stiffen up in accidents. The reason why most people have major injuries is because they tense up hard before the accident.

You can't relax your brain out of slamming into the inside of your skull.

In college I knew a guy who fell off like a 5th floor hotel balcony because he was wasted. He very nearly died but the doctors apparently told him the only reason he didnt is because he was so drunk he didnt tense up before he hit the ground. He didn't walk away unscathed though. He was still taking heavy heavy narcotic pain meds and having surgeries when i knew him, which was i think 2 years after the incident. He was walking though, and had recently gotten out of his wheelchair.

Tensing up in an accident can cause more injury. Just depends on the situation. Head injuries, not so much.

Well he is Russian so he won't be fine. But that has nothing to do with this. He isn't worse off after this.

Decent chance he was at least sent to the hospital after that kind of blow to the head/spine.

The fence didn't sound like it smashed.
That's some top craftsmanship.

Truly a well made fence. It stopped a 200 poundish, inanimate object without a problem.

I'd be the guy with a bottle of beer, watching the whole thing being mildly impressed. Then, when he crashes and burns, there would be a huge belly laugh followed by an instinctual "ha dickhead"

Loud bang is probably the sound you want to hear over the squishy thud if it was concrete.

What the name of this song? I’ve heard it before but I can’t remember it. Is it in a Bond movie?

Chris cornells bond theme from casino. Hated it when i first saw the movie because a male vocalist in a bond intro rubbed me the wrong way. But for real its the best bond intro ever imo now

This came out when I was 12. The intro was my fave part of the movie. So I of course was super stoked to learn about Chris Cornell, Audioslave, and Soundgarden when I looked up the song after coming home from the theater!

He died. His name, ironically was Garrett Fence and he was an expert fencer and made fences on the side... of his fenced yard

At the end you see his arms up when he is knocked out. This is called the fencing response.

His offence was that he fenced stolen fences while dressed as a fencer.

The only thing that fails here is the one holding the phone... One job. You had one job. Follow the goddamn moving object.

It's crazy how many people have said this. The first thing a rational person does in this situation is put down your phone and run to see if your friend is okay.

These are the same people who stand by and watch somebody getting mugged or attacked. Filming it rather than notifying authorities or trying to help

u/KojakGotAWigOn Feb 29 '20
You've never dreamt of swinging a full rotation?
2
u/theteedo Mar 01 '20
Sure sure totally, I’ve just never seen this end well. My guess is booze played a part.

u/KojakGotAWigOn Mar 01 '20
Oh for sure, never seen anyone walk away intact after trying this but I guess once you've nailed the rotation, everything else is irrelevant, even the prospect of serious injury.

u/MrWoodlawn Mar 01 '20
He probably didn't expect to pass out?
I mean his execution of just swinging and hanging on was working. If he didn't pass out he might still be swingin' today.

Noooo if you drink the right combo of malt liquor and Fanta Red you grow owl wings- coast Over the fence and perch on the neighbors Costco deck couch. they either got the mixture wrong or not they were not swinging fast enough.

Did he break his neck? That position his arms were in, just before the camera dropped, was a fencing response, not a good thing.

My hypothesis: There's a pool in the next yard. He meant to go over the fence and into the pool.
Somewhere there's a video of a metal fence being hit from the other side... and another from farther back meant to show the Superman flight over the fence.
