That's why when I drive to NYC I always park in a garage where you park the vehicle yourself. You can't trust parking attendants making minimum wage to not bang it up, or anyone depressed enough to throw themselves off a building & land on it. :Twocents:

No F'n shit?!?!  If you jump from a 40 story building what else is gonna happen?

Thats a great story.

Interesting that she blames her husband for it and he agreed to pay the deductable.  Isn't it thier money?  I see a divorce in thier future.
14 grand must have been the Geico apraised value.

I really want to see a picture of the car.

They are rare and hard to come by so I can see why she is so upset.

There is a picture of the car at the very bottom of the article.  Not the best color either.

The next time I see somebody in the movies fall 40 stories and then survive after landing on a car or something, I guess I'll believe it.

The rear end of a Chagnum is not even a particularly soft thing you could land on.  Nor was the guy wearing any padding in his clothing like Batman or somebody would have.



Christ, 40 stories?  That's 400 vertical feet?  That's pretty insane to have survived.  The incident would've been interesting if he survived falling FOUR stories.

Okay, time out.

This guy fell more than 400 damn feet and he lived?  It's not like he landed on a feather bed either...

WTF!? :o

I wonder how they define "lived" in this case?

I like how they call it the "back windshield" instead of the back window or back lite.  I was reading the article the other day and they said he went thru the windshield and into the back seat and i thought, how the hell does that happen.?...??

If some dork smashed the rear end of one of my 69s to break his fall, I'd like to push him off another building myself.

  you wouldn't have to, the sail panels around the rear window would have cut him in thirds.

Yeah unlike the 2008 I think a 1969 would complete the job the first time :D.

The jumper will need major therapy. He feels his life sucks so bad that he jumps from a building and then fails at killing himself. On a second note... Why do jumpers take off their glasses?

For the same 3 reasons they come off for sex.

1)  You don't want them in your way like blankets in the summer.
2)  You wouldn't want to break them when things get crazy.  (Ever see the prices of some designer frames?)
3)  You would probably lose them for sure.

Caught something on T.V. once.  They said many jumpers build monuments to themselves with their license and credit cards etc before they jump.  Maybe the glasses thing is part of that.
