If real, perhaps the most insane thing Ive seen on the internet in some time.

No he didn't, I was there he looked pretty alive to me. I'm trying to figure out why people think its fake
 
LOL at people who think this might be real.

How about ... he would have died if he missed?

And got pretty badly injured even if he landed perfect.
 
THAT is pretty fvckin amazing. Considering the distance of the flight, IF he had missed, he could have been seriously injured or killed.

Uhh, he-fucking-llo, people have tried and do try these stunts all the time, and many die.


That doesn't stop others from trying and potentially succeeding. And he was wearing a suit, how does that prove or disprove he wasn't hurt? It looks pretty compelling to me.

it's fake because his momentum would not have been stopped by simply landing in the pool

How do you know how deep the pool is? It looks carved into the hillside, and in all likeliness is.
 
ugh, when people do this crap, why do they do it with crappy ass cameras? Is it so that when the chop the shit out if it, we don't realize it?

something about that video is sooo off.


Is it soo hard to get a GOOD camera if you are going to TRY to kill yourself with a stupid stunt like this?

Ha ha ha seriously? Physics dude.
a) the slip and slide itself looks shorter height-wise than the trajectory he followed after leaving it. Conservation of energy in that situation would not let him travel that high and far unless he had a rocket strapped to him. Even if the slip and slide was a perfectly frictionless surface (which it absolutely isn't), he couldn't have gone that high and far.
b) Even if my dimensional perception in part A was off, at the end he's STANDING UP in the pool so at most it's only knee high. A fall into the pool at that velocity would have AT LEAST broken his ass. Most likely shattered his back in fun ways and yet he gets right up and is perfectly fine.

This is of course completely ignoring the fact that the stunt was batshit crazy and no one short of Evil Knievel would have tried it (and keep in mind he probably shattered every bone in his body trying his stunts).
 
The first thing I noticed was that the audio was fake. (sound of him moving down the slide). The rest is pretty obvious.

Tell me this is all an act..

/forehead
 
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.
