Somehow I don't think that he could have survived that.

It just occurred to me that if enough people think this person didn't come out alive I'd remove it in a second. I have a real problem with all the 'snuff' clips out there in internet land.

I guess I'm guilty too of indulging in the misfortune of others. Bull Fighters and 'Xtreme' idiots I have little sympathy for however.

What do y'all think?

It looked bad but I could see someone surviving that.  You don't see the landing so it's impossible to tell.  Big Ben got hit at about that speed (without a helmet even) and is still playing pro ball so that guy had a chance.
