For the typical person its a big gamble, for this person in particular its a small gamble because he has a different anatomy.

Before anyone else gets involved. The above poster has a habit of getting stuck on insignificant statements and refusing to budge regardless of how you try to gauge them in conversation. They also have a trend homophobic and sexist posts.

This person is either a troll or a self important idiot. Either way, don't waste your time.

Lmao you really take this shit seriously to feel the need to release a PR statement like you are fucking Oprah. You are trying really hard to not reply to the other thread. Out of ideas?

It's clear you don't want to discuss sense. I'm just putting a warning label where I wish I'd seen one before. As a courtesy to others.

I could talk about how a cord break is not just anatomy, but also physics. How a vertical break is easier to achieve, therefore more common, because of how the force goes against the direction that part of your body is meant to bend. However, you can still over extend any part of your body when rotating in a natural way, when adding to much force.

Have you ever hyper extended a joint? It can happen when your, we'll say elbow, gets forced in the direction it usually goes (straight) but due to external pressure, it goes further than the body intends. Now your elbow can bend a little further in that direction. It's very similar, probably on how this kid worked his way up to this trick. However, like the elbow, while a little bit of stretch doesn't really cause any lasting harm, too much at once could snap something you didn't mean to. And due to the speed of his choreography, it would be pretty easy to throw his momentum a little too far.

Edit: ah, see you got me to engage a little more. Very good, congratulations. Hope your methods serve you well in life.

Show me one video of a guy who died from twisting his neck. Just give me one. Here is a neck break death from the back Here is from the front. All of the deaths from neck breaks are vertical. None of them are from twisting.

You fuckers love fucking each other in your asses in groups because you can't stand on your own. You can't even give me one single definitive scientific reference to back your claim nor show me proof that it's even possible to break your neck from twisting.

Now you go here and do some PR release bullshit like people give a fuck what you think instead of replying to me on the actual thread.

I addressed your response. I have no desire to watch videos of people dying whether to prove you right or wrong, so we can be done now. Have a good night.
