A dumbass jumper shatters his feet hitting the edge of a hotel pool from 3 stories up.  He's a Youtube 'star' with a history of jumps and some near-misses. 

Now he has started a GoFundMe account begging for donations to pay his huge medical bills.  Big surprise. 


WARNING: a video of the incident is posted in the story (optional to click on it).  Apparently it's graphic.  I don't know how bad because I didn't watch it.

He should have gone head first. I despise anyone misusing GoFundMe or try to get money because they are in trouble due to their own blatant stupidity. What a total prick.

[birdsandbees]

Head first he probably would have made the pool... I know I did in F Lauderdale in 1981 ! LOL

Pain is a good deterrent. I'd be suprised if he tried that again.

Do not underestimate the power of sheer stupidity.

Jumping again?  I think his next goal will be walking normally.  Maybe by 2018 or 2019.  Apparently the damage was so bad that he's lucky nothing was amputated.     

One of the articles mentioned a figure of $274,000 for medical bills.  That was like 1 day after the injury.

...sounds like he doesn't want to "foot" the bill !!!

[Kern Dog]

Ha ha. Shorty makes a funny.

You got to crawl before you can walk.


I'm not going to watch.  I don't like seeing people getting hurt, no matter how stupid it is.

YouTube is chock full of funny videos of stupid people falling, drunk people falling, fat people falling...

people pay to see it look at jackass or the Tokyo shock boys  we've had them both live playing to full houses
