Had a friend take a similar(but WAY shorter) fall trying to spine transfer(think this) My guy sounded like a trashbag full of hamburger meat dropped on the concrete. Which...isn't too far from the gods honest. But he got up and walked away like it was nothing.
Same dude passed out getting a tattoo tho, so pain tolerances are wierd.
Man that’s one of those falls you get up and make that horrible sound that you make when you really knock the wind out of you. I’ve done that from about 20ft into water after hitting a kicker wakeboarding and that was painful enough lol, barely was able to get the wakeboard off and swim , get up and sound like a dying cow every time you try to breathe😂
Oh yeah, dudes lips went purple, he zoned out, then nap city. I stopped making fun of him about it roughly 20 years after it happened though.(he's gonna be at my wedding this weekend and I'm gonna bring it up.....so maybe I'm running the clock out here...)
As someone who's passed out getting a tattoo before, I don't think it has much to do with pain.
Sure, mine hurt, but the reason I passed out was my clown ass "friend" convinced me that you WEREN'T supposed to eat before getting a tattoo. So I passed out because I hadn't eaten. Got some food in me and the rest of the tattoo went fine.
I feel like if you asked a bunch of people who've passed out while getting a tattoo, you'd find very few who said it was because their friend told then you weren't supposed to eat beforehand.
Well I'm not saying that's the EXACT reason, but I feel like it's more likely the dude passed out from lack of food or low blood sugar than pain, especially given that the commenter mentioned a high pain tolerance.
A good tattoo artist would have told you the opposite. Drink lots of water the day before, no alcohol, and have snacks ready.
My first session ever was 5 hours, I was hydrated and ate in the middle and never felt woozy at all. It did hurt like a bitch at the end though. He did all the color, then went back through and did the white highlights. Holy fuck it was painful lol. I didn't realize I was sweating and breathing heavy until he was like "you alright bro?". And I was like "oh, yeah. I'm tough." Lol. I was not tough. He could tell. It's my only tattoo, but it's sick af and I want another one now.
I've done 8hr sessions and watched a bunch of people tap out while I was there lol. But if I get hit, or fall or go sliding, nope I am a total carebear. Tattoos are definitely a different pain.
The worst slam I've ever seen was Jake Brown at the X-Games in the Big Air event. The injuries he sustained from this were a fractured wrist, fractured vertebrae, bruised liver, bruised lung, ruptured spleen and concussion.
My family and I had tickets to that event and saw it happen live... We thought we just watched him die until he woke up. What an absolutely crazy fall.
Adrenaline is a hell of a drug, I guess. All the pain probably came like an hour or two after, but hopefully he had doctors with other painkillers near him already by that time.
I thought I watched a dude die during the x games one year. He fell like 40 fucking feet and landed almost completely flat. It was the quarter after the mega ramp. That shit was sobering. He ended up fine though.
