What’s wrong with people chasing this kind of adrenaline rush without a second thought for the risk involved? A man jumped from a cliff roughly 72 meters high into a river, and instead of the thrill he was chasing, he walked away with a fractured spine, sternum, skull, and... a ruptured eardrum. That’s not bad luck, that’s the actual math of gravity and impact at that height. What looks like courage in the moment can turn into a life-altering injury in seconds when there’s no real safety margin. Are you afraid of heights? The line between thrill-seeking and reckless is a lot thinner than people think until they’re the one paying for it.show more

Another reason Obamacare and other forms of socialized medicine will never work. Why should others have to pay those medical bills?

Good point Fred…

@fredrick_d31586 yeah, send the money to israel

@TonyLaneNV

There’s a reason all high-dive specialists go in feet first. This guy displayed the reason for that.

You wouldn't want to slam into the water horizontally you would want to enter toes pointing downward completely vertical to minimize impact on your body he must have been drunk

🙄This is roughly the equivalent of jumping of a 14 story building. Someone was obviously behind him making this video. How unfortunate to have two idiots side-by-side.

@MagaGrunt1 He is a lib who is living for views and clicks. Play stupid games and break your back.

I’ve done a 75ft swan dive off a cliff. 72 meters is absolutely foolish.

Yeah, from that height you'd have to go in feet first, you can't dive like that, your body isn't meant to take an compacting impact like that in that direction.

White people and dumb shit.

@LynneB8898 That was dumb…that little rock he threw down didn’t do squat from those heights.

@gotrice2024 Shit. Now the national park service will probably be hounded by the ADA to install a wheelchair ramp for him to create his next video. Assuming he also decided to forego health insurance, the taxpayers will likely be on the hook for that, too.

Yea i rolled out of bed once and fractured my snickers bar. What an adrenalin rush

@LynneBP_294 I used to cliff dive, and that bruh had to have had a low IQ. Impact has consequences. A person jumping from a 73-meter cliff will hit the water in 3.86 seconds at a final speed of 37.83 meters per second (about 85 mph or 136 km/h) if ignoring air resistance. Fun!!

Dude was a retard. That jump was a layup if he just went straight down: pencil-like, feet first, cover your crotch and hold your nose. Instead he jumped like a spazz and landed sideways - lucky he only got the injuries listed.

Psychopaths love physical thrills.

And we collectively get to pay his hospital & recovery bills. 74 million Americans are on Medicaid now. 100% free healthcare. If you’re not on it, you can quit your job when you get to the hospital, and they’ll sign you up that day. I’ve been there and watched how it works.

It’s was actually 42 meters (139 foot) but yes still very stupid.

I personally don’t give a shit whether someone decides to permanently injure or even kill themselves doing stupid shit.

At least we now know how high communists can survive after being thrown from a chopper.

Was anyone even down there to pull him out? And was he high as a kite when he did this? Or totally sober? Nuts!

The plan was to go in sideways?

I remember in the movie The Guardian Kevin Costner said jumping from higher than 50ft into water was like hitting concrete.

I'm not afraid of heights. Part of that is because I refuse to participate in nonsense like this.

It would feel like you hitting concrete. Plus you never jump like he did. You jump feet first and your arm by your side like a pencil

I am very afraid of heights!

I used to jump off rocks and bridges into water in my youth Always with shoes on and never death dive,maybe throw a Gainer or a flip But never head first

The dude is actually lucky it was only that. It's akin to hitting hard pavement at that speed from a lower height. I got bruised back doing a canon ball from a 10 meter high diving board when I was a kid. You have to dive at high heights or suffer injury. He could easily have ended up paralyzed or dead from that height.

I once went cliff diving in Jamaica at Rick's Cafe, but, that was a mear 85 feet. That guy was Nuts !!

This reminds me of when I was about 10 years old and I was going to do a flip off the high dive at the local pool. I think it was about 11-12’ from the water. I didn’t fully rotate and landed on my back when I hit the water and omg it felt like I knocked my soul out of my body. It was all I could do to make it to the edge of the pool and it felt like it knocked the sh!t out of me literally. I can only imagine how this guy felt.😭

What was he on? That’s incredibly stupid

The highest jump I've ever done only took nearly 3 seconds I did a preacher seat on that one once. It turned the back of my legs and my ass completely purple. I don't think I would jump off anything much higher than that.

this is exactly why insurance should only be cost covered by the user everyday we have to pay the bill for retards and exploitive lazy over using no self control while self indulgent losers

Hes a complete amateur who has no idea of how to jump safely from those heights. He didnt even attempt to land with his feet first, which is the only efficient landing from such height.

@CRIXUSwasHERE Well, jumping w your back or torso hitting first is absolute nonsense even for me and I have never jumped from higher than 80 ft.
