Two Ukraines Idiots Decide to slide from a building slide...this is how it Ends.

I guess you really can fix dumb.

You can't, but you can break it.

Also known as Sciadica made easy.

 

[Krazy4Real]

Now they're Russian him to the hospital!

Brilliant!

Darwinism once again rears it's ugly head.

 

[Jeff7]

Am I the only one who thinks there is more of this idiocy going on simply because people want to post vids? I know people have been doing stupid stuff forever but when you couldn't record it to post online I don't think there was as much. Or it could be because of the vids, everyone everywhere gets to see all the Darwin candidates instead of just the ones reported in their local news.

Not at all. People will do stupid things to get attention in a small group of friends - ancient social-primate programming at work.

Now tell that same programming "If you do this, millions of people might see it." If you're not smart enough to suppress that ancient urge, stupidity can lead to serious injury.


I'm sure primitive teenagers tried to ride bison or slap a mountain lion's nose to amuse friends. Thankfully, they're the reason that all of the "nerd" was never bred out of our genome: The surviving friends could still breed, but there'd be a potential gap left by the absence of the one who got mauled to death.

Looks like it can be fixed with a slide off a building.

I was of the proper age to do really really stupid things with beer, fire, explosives, guns and anything with wheels before there were digital cameras on every cell phone. And people still did the stupid things. All it takes is one person willing to die to get attention and a crowd of people who want to watch an epic fail. The camera is not really part of the equation, it preserves the stupidity forever, but it doesn't cause the stupidity. Trust me, my friends and I are all lucky to be alive and relatively intact. We didn't have cameras, yet we had no trouble getting an audience.

I called it! Idiots. You could tell he busted his head open because of the blood. His nose wasn't bleeding so he had to have busted his skull open in the back of his head when he landed. At time 5 seconds, u can see him about to whiplash land into the back of his skull.

The extensor posturing was a pretty solid give away.

I think it does encourage it, though. I see a lot of stuff online that would not exist without cameras--I mean, they just r wouldn't have done it. A lot of pranks and stupid shit like that.

 

[Markbnj]

But it had to be a good idea! There were adults there with cameras ready to film how cool they were.

 

[ch33zw1z]

stupid is as stupid does. these guys are stupid.

 

[Tsavo]

Do stupid things, win stupid prizes.

 

[Greenman]

I can't fathom why someone would do something that stupid. It's right up there with sticking your arm in an airplane propeller, or playing Russian roulette with an automatic. Even the village idiot would know it's not going to work.

Unless the village idiot is good and drunk.

"No no no it'll be fine. The bone in my arm will stop the propeller, and I've got a Band-aid in my wallet."

 

[UncleWai]

YOLO legends.

 

[1sikbITCH]

Those brains are scrambled.

 

[mcveigh]

2nd guy died.

I've been on a couple very serious benders in my life, and the closest I ever came to that kind of stupidity was picking a fight with three very large gentlemen.

This is the amateur video, and there is a more professional looking crew in the foreground. All the witnesses who came to help were waiting and watching this, so the whole "got drunk and decided to slide down" does not hold any water for me. This was an organized event. It is truly deplorable.

Who organized it and why does that make it deplorable? I didn't see anyone up there tossing those guys off the roof against their will. The sliders were willing participants and for all we know they were the ones who did the organizing in hopes to get famous a la Jackass. If someone of their own free will and of sound mind wants to risk death for money and fame, more power to them. It's their life and they're allowed to live it, or waste it, as they please. As least they had the courtesy to only risk their own lives and not do something that could endanger innocent bystanders too.

 

[skyking]

Interesting philosophy, except when the injured party is uninsured and they did not so much as put a mattress down there. They won't kick him out of the hospital, so society gets to foot the bill one way or another.
I'd treat those adult so called bystanders the same as irresponsible employers. Their presence and participation was a form of tacit approval, hell I would go so far as encouragement. THEY need to foot the bill.

Now THAT is a truly interesting philosophy. I applaud you for having the power to invent laws retroactively to punish anyone for anything however you see fit even if it's not the least bit illegal under the current laws. How did you manage that? Did they come to you via a radioactive spider bite or are you just from a different planet and your legal powers manifest when exposed to our sun?

I did not say I could, I said I would. That would be if I were given these powers
