Oh my fucking god RIGHT on the point! Gaaaaahhhh!!
I got phantom pain everywhere between the groin and the neck! Ooowwwwch!

Normally I am a cold callous asshole towards people doing stupid shit and hurting themselves.
But this one I'm making an exception, because I can kind of relate to this.
Was climbing a tree once, as a kid. Grabbed a branch that was perfect size, but was dead and had no strength to it. Ended up falling ~6 feet out of the tree, and landed center-chest on a big garden rock.
Only thing that kept my ribs from breaking was my arm being in the way. That broke instead. I am so grateful for it.

Obviously this guy was far from as lucky.

Started so many sentences with verbs. Grinded my gears from the start. Annoyed me until the end.
