Cool video but clearly fake. He would have been carrying a lot of momentum when he hit that pool, where did it go? He should have been seriously injured.

Yep. It's not like Aretha Franklin was waiting for him at the end with open arms/legs.

I shudder when I even think about that.
 
Hmmmm. That had to hurt. Other than it being incredibly idiotic and dangerous, I'm not seeing any physics being violated. If that's fake, that's one of the best faked videos I've seen. Inside, I don't want to believe it's true. I'm just not seeing anything wrong.

If it's fake Dreamworks needs to swoop whoever edited it up. I'm not saying it's real or it's not. But I scrubbed it frame by frame with Vegas and there's not a single frame out of place. One of the most impressive fakes I've ever seen if it's actually fake. There's a behinds the scene video about it I don't have the link though.

Also, I've seen more dangerous shit attempted on Jackass so the whole "this has to be fake because he could have died" angle doesn't mean much to me.
 
OMG.. are people seriously considering that video to be real? It reeks of fake. So many things give it away.... especially the physics...
 
linky it's in german but somebody here can translate. It's one of the behind the scenes videos, not the one I watched yesterday though.

Also 100% real.

 
2 feet of water isn't going to stop him from slamming into the bottom and/or side of that mini pool with enough force to kill him. That is why it is fake.

The fact that he goes out of view leads me to doubt it's authenticity.

Pretty much. It's awfully convenient how the slide dips out of view before leading to the ramp.
