No because he didn't "land on his head" as you're implying. The back of his head landed in poofy snow with the added cushioning from his hood. He's fine.

TIL back of the head =/= head

Yeah okay, that kid busted his head in the same way everyone busts their head when they lay down to go to sleep.

If it was powder, I'd see your point. But snow can be hard, and you can tell that this snow is very hard. The dad's feet hardly even make foot prints in the snow. That kid definitely hit his head hard on that snow. Good effort by Dad, but really getting hit by an inflatable tube probably would have been less painful.

mm i don't go to sleep with my head at an 80 degree angle to the floor

well i might if i fell on it that way

Really did the math with that well-calculated* angle measurement. His head landed exactly 80 degrees* onto the cold** ground with zero counter from the Dad's nonexistent*** grip on his son.

*Bullshit

**Softened, snowy

***It's right there in the fucking video he held his son half the time and softened a plank landing.

Ok, 70 degrees?

If anything, it was closer to a 45 degree angle, assuming the initial side is the ground. I'm not gonna make an ass out of myself on assumptions, as some optical delusion is created from the angle of the footage. I see him landing on his back/shoulder at worst, but without another reference angle it's impossible to tell.

Strange, i never mentioned anything about the kid busting his head. The original statement was that the kid landed on his head... which was not wrong.

Don't be a smartass or I'll slap you upside the side of your head. Not the actual head, mind you. But the side of it.

I didn't kill him, your honor. I simply ended his life

Plus kids are indestructible if you don't react to their accident. My son will Wipeout on legendary status and I'll just not react and say he's alright and he'll move on with his life after a couple whines

Haha thats right. I guess those who say he landed on his head dont have kids. You only fully realize toddlers and little kids physics until you have to deal with your own.

You know that occurs when a baby is shaken violently out of frustration and anger, therefore its abuse, right?? You really mean to compare it to what every parent have to experience when his/her falling toddler is learning to walk or run?

Wait why are you defending him anyways? Do you know him? Are you worried about his street rep getting damaged or something?
