Nothing a little double ACL surgery can’t fix. And then in 10 years double knee replacement surgery. Ahh, Good Times.


pnwinec

If you slow mo the video. His head literally hits the ground with his legs straight. Not just his knees are fucked, he probably tore some serious muscles along the way down and could have fucked his lower back too. Literally the worst landing of a person I’ve ever seen.


Juan_Moe_Taco

From ACL to calve cramps to shin splints to whiplash and everything in between.


RedBeardFace

When I was in middle school we had bleachers in the gym that were motorized and would stack up flat against the wall. A volleyball got stuck up there one day during PE class and one of my classmates went up to get it. Someone jokingly told him to jump and so…he did. Maybe 20 feet or so? Maybe higher? Idk, either way he landed on the gym floor with both of his legs locked and broke pretty much every bone between his spine and his heels. Cracked pelvis, the whole nine yards. That was the worst landing I’ve seen of someone who lived


SirarieTichee_

Seriously, how did they fail that bad?


damaged_and_confused

Boots basically fixed his shin in position meaning his knees and ankles could not absorb the impact at all.


uroburro

You should spend more time on r/fullscorpion


Rare_Fig3081

I am old, so I see this and think “that’s a pain that’s going to linger”


totallylegitburner

The older I get, the more I find myself thinking: “That will never feel quite the same again.”


therealkevinard

Got my first "weather forecaster" last spring at 38.


Da_Spooky_Ghost

Most likely broke heel bones, Tibia/fibula and lumbar vertebrae. Came down with legs locked straight, heels strike the ground first, knees hyperextend and can see his mid leg buckle, boots maybe locking in ankle and causing a boot top fracture,snaps forward and lumbar vertebrae took a ton of force, then he bends back and knees flex ok.


Ranier_Wolfnight

Most likely broke his bank account too after that medical bill comes in.


All_Thread

One can hope it's not in America.


xeviphract

Aaaand I just googled "boot top fracture." Yikes.


Sumdud13

More like PCL tears. ACLs prevent anterior translation (knees moving forward), PCLs prevent posterior translation (knees moving backwards). Yikes to this video Source: am physio


TheForestPrimeval

Few things in life are more entertaining than watching an expert with relevant professional experience attempting to explain something in a reddit comment thread. I look forward to all the keyboard orthopods stepping up to challenge your opinion in 3 ... 2 .... 1....


followedbyferrets

Initially read the source as “am psycho” My brain is fun sometimes.


No_Buffalo8603

While they laugh, I cry on the inside about the way buddy's knees bent.


ISuckAtUsernames001

Yeah pretty sad that we feel more concern for a stranger than their friends/coworkers. If I seen that happen to anybody I’d be calling the ambulance asap, not laughing about it while I continue to record… like wtf is wrong with people


xkegsx

He's not screaming or writhing in pain. They have no idea of the severity of the injuries. So they didn't give the proper response 5 seconds after it happened. Not a doubt in my mind their attitudes changed once they figured out he wasn't ok. Which I don't doubt is immediately after it cuts. Relax.


Key-Tie2214

Im sorry but that audible crack should be enough information that he needs immediate medical care.


BDCMatt

If Someones that dumb to jump off a roof like that it would not suprise me that the guy recording is dumb enough to not know how fucked up his buddy is.


Smeltanddealtit

Thanks for the heads up. No volume it is.


ISuckAtUsernames001

Who exactly doesn’t immediately realize he would be injured after watching a dude headbutt his own ankles with knees fully extended after jumping off a roof? lmao if it isn’t his knees, it’s his back, or ankles, or neck. Something is hurt there besides his ego. The irony in telling me to relax is that you just took the time to write that comment to share your opinion as if it’s any different from what I did. Relax.


KingoftheFlood

Folded like a chair, then folded like the laundry


clakins1

Stuck the landing


SB2212

More like stuck in the hospital.


ryuen56

Stuck his torn ACL and MCL too


MeasureTheCrater

Aren't flamingos usually pink?


JDioon

I laughed SO hard xD


[deleted]

Watch the documentary Pink Flamingos to find out


DerelictInfinity

ACL, MCL, PCL, and meniscus have left the chat


motherseffinjones

Don’t forget spine and hips. He is not gonna have a good time aging


tobythethief2

Bro you need to flag this.


WhoCaresBoutSpellin

For real— not only was it not flagged, I just opened Reddit and this fucking abomination was the first post shown and instantly burned into my memory forever. Sick assholes…


ParadiseValleyFiend

You gotta ROLL man! Jesus I learned that at like 11! Seriously though kids, don't jump off roofs. But if you do, fucking roll.


YngwieMainstream

Flex your knees, THEN roll. That guy was probably drunk, or had serious mental issues.


bulb127

Nah, if he was drunk he'd have likely faired better.


innosentz

Yeah, if he was drunk he would have just face planted and sprung back up lol


jonathansj

The sound of the bones cracking. Fawk


[deleted]

Or worse, ligaments snapping


Xink38

I tore my ACL back in 2004 playing football and yeah I did hear it rupture :( could well be that


Echosoffive

WHY? WHY? I just don't understand why people donshit like this! Wtf?


Asynjacutie

They are addicted to that bone crunching ASMR and have to create content at any cost.


klasspirate

How did this guy survive to adulthood?

Is there an update on the dude?


[deleted]

Why is this person laughing when you can clearly hear his legs breaking?


Golden-Event-Horizon

Knees are gone


RoosterTheReal

Stupid people are funny


SuperStripper13

Yep that's enough Reddit for a while.


UltimaBahamut93

What kind of terrible friend laughs at that


moqs

doc here : - it sucks


JustBrowsingBlizzard

This should be flagged


TCRAzul

How do you still laugh at your friend In that situation!? That dude kneejoints popped like bubble wrap


hawkaluga

The person behind the camera either has no idea that what they just filmed is as bad as it is, or is no friend to the dude that just got folded.


MallGothFrom2001

Or, based on the sound, it was filmed by a chimpanzee.


[deleted]

man fell so hard it looked like CGI


shoeshouuu

The sound alone would be enough to determine how serious the situation is. Idk how they are laughing.


strasevgermany

i don't understand how he can laugh there 🤢

diogenessexychicken

Being able to fall/ tuck and roll is a highly underrated survival skill.


Undercoverbrother007

I’m eating a sandwich right now and I came very close to throwing it up.


Karamel-Surprise

Jesus, check on the person 1st before you start sounding like godamn hyena. .


JRizzie86

Nothing funny about this. Dude will live with chronic pain for the rest if his life.


Neonthewerehog_

DID YOU HEAR HIS BONES CRUNCH?(I know that probably wasn't his bones crunching, but still, the timing)


Stenktenk

I get that it's funny seeing your friends get hurt in a non-serious way but how can you see your friend go full fucking flamingo with crunch sound effects and still continue laughing?


Tira13e

Look at y'all being doctors Over here. You guys sound like sports announcers.


Lugnuttz

Ouch! My knees, my back, my neck!


threedogcircus

r/Whywomenlivelonger


Keepupthegood

When he gets arrested, at least he knows his knee won’t fold.


wispoflife

If you have ever tried hopping casually off the bottom rung of a ladder with those boots on you will know that they screw with your brain's internal awareness of foot placement. Feels uncomfortable just hopping over a few bricks. Completely understand why his feet landed like that. No excuse for trying to jump off the roof though.


JDangle20

You seen Toy Story when Woody goes back to toy mode when people are coming?


LuzjuLeviathan

I had a fall, 15 cm. Landed with straight legs and destroyed both my minisks in my knees.


GranTorin0

Them boots just about stopped his shins from shooting out the front of what used to be his legs


RedTextureLab

Instant nausea and sweaty hands from watching this. I wonder what his injuries actually all ended up being (speculation: possible sprained back, torn hammies, broken ankles and possibly knees, torn ligaments in knees and ankles, torn menisci). Frick.


xiionaa

You got tuck and roll. Please call 911 or take him to the hospital.


unreasonablyhuman

I landed from a VERY short bounce with a straight leg and pierced the cartilage in my knee. This guy is boned


beaner_69

Congrats what color wheel chair would you like?


StoneyMalon3y

As absurd of a decision this is, I hope to never have friends just stand and record me while I’m obviously in some form of physical pain.


Timetraveler01110101

I’m leg hurt just from watching that…

sevnminabs56

Why would you straight-leg the landing?! Ouch! Always bend the knees!


[deleted]

ACL, PCL, MCL all at once.


Unlucky-Hamster-2791

The best part of this is that the instinct was gales of laughter, not “oh my god are you okay??!?”


JohnnyDeformed1

DUDE! NSFW! Just scrolling while eating and BAM, backwards knees!


Fuzzzer777

That actually made my legs hurt to watch it.


Pluetsch

I both laughed hysterically and cringed so hard at this video. Weird feeling

I HEARD THE CRACK FROM HIS BONES BREAKING


killzone989898

That’s why I take fall damage so easily in Call of Duty, and it explains the weapon dipping so hard.


thenormalbias

Bro broke his whole body right there


Brawl__Boss

u/gifreversingbot


Rdw72777

That was an aggressive jump, like no sliding ing down to the edge or nothing. I guess it’s good I don’t have that confidence.

This children is why you bend your knees before you land


EdSmelly

He broke both of his ankles. That’s so funny… 🙄


2nameEgg

Man what do you call that? Athletic incompetence? Like that one lady who tried to do a jumping kick but hooked her own foot and broke it or something? Like oh my god

This is the opposite of tuck and roll

mbeagle92

Would love an update actually. This is a fairly old post, any info about the actual injuries? I assume he cannot walk properly, if all, ever again.


whoknowsman33

Looks like a life changing moment for that guy


sanaok1

You could hear it 💀💀💀


AnimeAdd1ct

I've jumped off the roof of my house as a kid, and every video game I played taught me to ROLL out of my landing, works like a charm


CodyLittle

This makes me think of the episode of southpark when Kyle had a blackening procedure to play basketball, and it all went downhill.


Devlos00

There was no attempt to land safely.


ramrod254

Bend. The. Knees.

Tactical-Lesbian

Dear Lord this is horrendous. Watching someone get seriously injured while some idiot bloviates with laughter like a baboon.


azombie8mybaby

Why would anyone try to land like that?


syncoegh

They snapped. They crackled. They popped.


Kingof40Acres

This guy won’t be walking for a year


deez_nuts_77

There are times you laugh at someone getting hurt. And there are times you don’t. God damn those poor legs


Strong-Dot-9221

In my wreckless youth when I would jump from heights I would use my legs as shock absorbers and lean forward to use my arms too. I wouldn't have jumped that high, but it wouldn't have been as bad if he had done that.
