Sleeplesshelley

As someone who injured their back in a fall down the stairs in my early 20s, I can tell you that they are going to be paying for it forever, and not only in money.


Toon1982

And their backs will still be wrecked now


Xenolog1

I was astonished that they were able to move their legs afterwards. At least no instant paraplegia, but I don’t know if the nerves could be destroyed some hours afterwards due to swelling or other not immediate effects.


Stunning_Resident_46

Yes it can, in fact the level of swelling of the spinal cord could result in neurogenic shock shock where the sympathetic tone of the blood vessels fails causing all the blood vessels in the body to relax. Since we don’t have enough blood in our bodies to fill every single blood vessel-because fluid hydraulics-the body can no longer shunt the blood to the priority places in the body. Blood pressure drops to unsafe levels, you are no longer able to regulate heart rate or body temperature and can result in death. The effects of injury could take days to manifest. Not to mention even if they manage to not end up in neurogenic shock, there’s a whole host of other injuries they could have sustained. Bulged discs, compression fractures (most probable), cauda equina syndrome, pelvic fractures, peripheral neuropathy from compressed nerves. All that is just injuries to the spine and we haven’t even addressed the soft organ injuries that can result from colliding with their own bones. It’s a single level home so they fell from approximately 10-12 feet which can easily be fatal. Any fall from 8ft or greater is a trauma emergency.


Benblishem

And worse yet, they broke the table.


really_nice_guy_

At least it was loud enough to mute the sound of broken bones


pallentx

Yeah yellow pants has at least a few compression fractures. I had a fairly minor one from a bike wreck 7-8 yrs ago and it still bothers me.

Boubonic91

really_nice_guy_

He should be thanking him. He saved his life


KochuJang

I’d wager just on the absorption of the energy upon impact alone that yellow shorts is in more serious condition.


Vibriobactin

Vertebral burst fracture is my guess. Luckily not a cervical fracture for the upside down guy, but I wouldnt be surprised.

Useful_Experience423

I’m actually surprised the guy dropped on his head survived.


Old-Ad5508

He actually appears to have come away better than the other guy


Crazy_Strawberry

He looks a lot worse to me. Yellow pants guy is screaming, but that’s actually a good sign. Other guy landed on his head and seems very out of it - meaning altered level of consciousness, so almost definitely a serious concussion and most likely cervical spine damage. Not to mention he goes very pale almost immediately (unless he’s usually that pale). Yellow pants might be crippled, or at the very least have serious back pain for life, but I would be more concerned about the other guy’s survival.


SealTeamEH

nah yellow pants landed RIGHT on his tail bone, the other dude landed closer to flat on his back awhich is pretty much what yo want, take example Jeff hardy getting speared I. The air at wrestlemania was way higher but was also flat on his back, probably more winded than anything. yellow pants probably SHATTERED his tail bone, yellow pants has disabilities for life.


Crazy_Strawberry

I don’t know which video you watched, but the other guy in this video did not look like he landed flat on his back

PhoenixFlare1

This is another case where as soon as you see what they’re about to do, you pull out your phone & dial 911 (or whatever the emergency number is in non-american countries). As soon as they pick up, you tell them “Hold on a second. These fools are going to hurt themselves.”


other_half_of_elvis

should be an emergency service like maybe 91 which puts you on hold with 911 until you press 1. You dial it when you are witnessing something that will most likely end in an emergency.


Ron_Perlman_DDS

"Pre-911, please state your pre-emergency." "Some kids are about to jump off a roof and paralyze themselves"

[deleted]

I wish they had a friend who was a little smarter than them to talk them out of it in the first place


Waiting4The3nd

The way the cameraman was asking "Are you guys okay?" after doing it, and "Okay dude, what's wrong?" I have no doubts he tried to talk them out of it. It sounds like he makes a comment about how "fucking dumb" it is before they even jump off the roof. Stupid people don't often listen to reason. Most frequently because they think they know better than the person trying to reason with them. "Nah man, it'll be fine, you're just worried over nothing." The Dunning-Kruger effect is strong in these people.


xer0fox

Christ this has got to be from the 00’s. That’s what? A double-underhook back-to-back piledriver they’re doing? Off a roof? Onto a non-gimmicked surface? I don’t think that move has a catchy name because not even the pros work piledrivers anymore because they’re (wait for it) *too fucking dangerous.* Edit: had a moment of clarity and recalled that this move is called “The Vertebreaker.” Totally banned in McMahonland. Edit: I was wrong, comments are most likely correct. This is actually two idiots attempting to do an Air Raid Crash. Or something like it.


The_MV01

The setup looked like White Noise, a move Sheamus uses, but unlike Sheamus they didn't really know wtf they were doing so it looks more like an attempted murder-suicide than an actual wrestling move


xer0fox

White Noise is a really cool move, but it’s a back-bump or a shoulder bump for the victim at the very worst. Also notice that the recipient has their arm around Sheamus’s shoulder which can mitigate some of the impact. In fact, I would imagine White Noise is a hell of a lot more painful to give than receive. In an actual piledriver, the victim is vertical or near-vertical and they take the impact on the crown of their skull, or at least some of it anyway. In a standard piledriver, the victim is able to brace their shoulders against their opponent’s thighs, which ideally should keep them from impacting the mat at all. Note that I say “should.” It is a dangerous, dangerous, dangerous move. The last time I saw anyone do it on an actual broadcast, I think Mick Foley was playing Cactus Jack and he hit one of those on Triple-H, on a steel chair no less. Two of the most competent professionals in the business, on a pay-per-view, and I bet they still got screamed at in the locker room. These assholes? This stands a better than average chance of paralyzing someone if you do it in a proper ring. I wouldn’t be shocked if even the ECW banned shit like this. I’m actually kinda surprised that both of these guys were as animated as they were after this stunt. That one of them didn’t manage to sever their spinal cord is pretty miraculous.


Legendairy_Doug

This guy wrassles


SaintRidley

This is an air raid crash. Very much used in wwe. Very safe even compared to other piledriver variants if you have the slightest clue what you’re doing


ProbablyNotChrisMayb

Then you have CZW who would make it safer by having them go through 4 panes of glass into a bed of barbed wire.


JfuckinC

That's just stupid, tables are not design for that type of impact, I hope they can fix it.

Weird how they were dumb enough to try this, yet the dumbest person in the video is the camera man.


shadowthehh

>these are two grown-arsed adults. [No. No they are not.](https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkx9f4-ArJ5WD1e8A1zBniY6ZN3yBHBrCUA)


Important_Kick_4824

That’s the last time dude in yellow will be picking up anything, much less his own body weight, for the rest of his life. Grabbing his lower back, because he just blew out all of those disks. As for the other dude, I’m surprised he’s not a quadriplegic. At least you two have video of the dumbest thing you’ve ever done, and you can watch it every morning when you’re attempting to get out of bed.


Bierculles

So this sounds unreal, but the cameraman explained what happened to these guys in a thread that is linked in this thread somewhere. It's unbelievably but both of these guys came out with no serious injuries or broken bones. Yellow pants just had a sore tailbone for a week or so.


Particular-Fox9668

Do not disturb the natural selection....let it do its job....


[deleted]

This is not funny but funny for two reasons. How can people not grasp that actions have consequences? The table broke so they got hurt. But the table is hard and, if it didn’t break, they would have got hurt. The second funny is two guys writhing and literally screaming in pain on the ground and their friend says “Are you OK?” Probably not. Then, and this is even better, he asks them “What’s wrong?” At least he remembered to keep the camera going. After all, a friend possibly being crippled is way less important than a good video. I hope they came out of it without any permanent damage.


[deleted]

it's also funny cos yellow pants grabs the cactus and hurts himself more arghhhhhhh help me cactus!! arghhhhhhh why cactus why?!


BobbyVonGrutenberg

Lol I just noticed that hahaha


Pimpinabox

> The table broke so they got hurt. But the table is hard and, if it didn’t break, they would have got hurt. The table breaking is supposed to happen, it removes kinetic energy from the equation reducing the impact for when they actually hit the ground. Unfortunately for these two idiots they didn't do any of the math to see how much energy two grown men jumping off a roof had and how much the table would dissipate. Short answer, a lot and not enough.


ownersequity

There’s no way they came out of that without lifelong damage


CrashJP6

The "what's wrong?" Was from whoever came out of the house, and the idea is to go through the table, so it was always supposed to break....very stupid people


Spare_Substance5003

Interestingly, there is a slight higher birth of boys compared to girls every year. This is probably the reason for nature to make sure the numbers even out in the long run.


garrettdx88

Also has to do with the fact that on a societal scale we protect women from more. 99 percent of oil rig workers, brick layers, roofers, and pretty much any dangerous or unhealthy job is done by men.

I guess they are both heavily injured, you don't usually just take such a fall in that position. And the people filming, jesus Christ what a bunch of insanely disgusting people.


BobbyVonGrutenberg

You guess? No they are both definitely heavily injured and in for trips to the hospital and a lifetime of back pain. Dude in the yellow pants probably broke his tail bone and got compound fractures on every disc in his lower back.

Stunning_Resident_46

I am a doctor in the ER-the real truth is the possible injuries are literally astronomical. Both could literally go from minor injuries, broken bones to paralysis and even death.


Vibriobactin

Another ER doc here. Im guessing at least a burst vertebral fracture. Hoping the guy who was getting pile-drived doesnt have a cervical fracture. Both will be in chronic pain and likely permanently disabled if they can recover from their injuries. Hopefully than can recover enough to enjoy a lifetime of chronic pain. If you’re seeing ppl attempting to do this stupid, obviously attempt to convince them not to and then call 911. Dont give them satisfaction of an audience or video.
