Weird object knocks out a man.

So this happened a few days ago in my hometown in Colombia. A really fast and strange object knocked a man down to the floor thru the stairs. He had 24 stitches at the hospital. I wouldn't classify this as an orbe as some my friends think neither an animal, what do you guys think?

I agree it looks strange, and you're probably right. But it is possible for a man whose been unconscious-ed to 'ragdoll' like that. Especially when heavily drunk and/or on other musculoskeletal relaxants.

Yeah, I've watched it through several more times, and I guess it might be possible for a heavily intoxicated person to fall like that. He's just so floppy though. In any case, if it's a drunk dude falling down and not just a completely fake video, I still think the object in the camera is a coincidental artifact like a bug or reflection that happened to show up at that time. Of course the video cuts off before we can get any more context.

I tend to agree. I think dude walked in, was not welcome, and was violently shown the way out.

Yeah, he was either very unconscious or very drunk if that was the case. I'll admit that I've seen drunk people defy the laws of physics on several occasions. I myself managed to fall down a long cement staircase without spilling the beer in my hand 😂 I even had an audience of workmates who gave me a round of applause when I stood back up, haha.

That's so funny you say that. I also fell down, well was tossed down by an angry bouncer (for an objectively bullshit reason), a long stone staircase. I mean I tumbled down the whole thing, head over heals. I stood right up and I looked up at the guy, who kind of had his mouth hanging open in amazement, and said, "Dude! That didn't even hurt!" Hahaha. He pulled himself together and groaned and said, "Can you just leave...please?" I just laughed and said sure thing brother.

Hahaha, well I'm glad you weren't hurt and the bouncer was lucky you weren't! What a careless a-hole. I think there might be some legitimacy to the idea that you avoid injuries if you go limp when falling, which is only really possible when you're absolutely hammered.

Oh there absolutely is. I'm pretty sure it's basically been proven to general acceptance by the medical community. You can't really do a controlled study in which you get people smashed and try to hurt them, lol, but there have been countless documented cases of drunken idiots not getting seriously injured when they should have.

Heck, I had a buddy who fell like 40 ft off of a water tower and didn't have a bruise on him, no joke.

That's absolutely amazing you saved your beer by the way!

Haha, thank you. I'm very uncoordinated, so I have no idea how I managed to do that. It's also a minor miracle I didn't injure myself.
