:frown: Falling to your death sound like one of the worst ways to die.
[QUOTE=Farrelm;30493177]:frown: Falling to your death sound like one of the worst ways to die.[/QUOTE] I wouldn't mind it. At least you'd have the sensation of fallling rather than bleeding out.
I came into this thread expecting a magnificent story of how a Scottish teen defied the odds and fell 1,300 feet and lived, due to being cut off on the front page. I'm disappointed and sad.
Uh did you not read the title.
[QUOTE=TH3_L33T;30473997]This reminded me of the Dyaltolv incident in the 50's, except this incident has less mystery to it.[/QUOTE] Just read the wiki page on that, creepy
[QUOTE=Smug Bastard;30484595]Only if he landed on his head. Seriously, ideas like this give me nightmares. Falling a hundred and thirty stories, knowing there's nothing you can do to stop it, then landing as every bone in your body breaks like glass, and then you slowly bleed to death in the freezing cold.[/QUOTE] You'd bleed out within 20 seconds. The shattering of bones would tear through vital arteries and muscle. The worst thing is, during those 20 seconds, you'd feel every part of your body swell with blood.

RIP. Sad way to go, Medical Student and all.

I'm pretty sure he hit something after a couple of seconds, you don't freefall all the way.

[QUOTE=Fourm Shark;30505685]Damn, What was going through his mind while he was falling?[/QUOTE] Honestly at that point, for me its either how bad I'm going to smell, or regrets. I have none.
[QUOTE=Eluveitie;30485207]What? How do you black out? When? You don't black out when you're falling otherwise sky diving would be illegal.[/QUOTE] There is this theory about blacking out a split second before you hit the ground, I'm guessing that's what he's referring to.
I bet the rescuers told them "Hang on for one more day" and he replied "I cannot change the laws of physics!"
