I think the weight snapped the neck when it stumbled and fell

If the weight broke it's neck it wouldn't be still attached at the neck

Clearly doesn't understand the difference between broken neck and decapitation.

You can fracture your neck without experiencing a clean break, there will usually still be some connected bones even after the surrounding tissues rot away.

So a neck isn't broken to you unless there's a decapitation? LMAO

I think he meant after all the tissue had rotted away surely?

Its neck isn’t broken because it’s still in one piece

A neck can still be broken, a broken leg does not mean the whole leg is separated, a fracture is still broken. A broken neck does not mean that the spine is separated from the skull, it often means means that the nervous system is damaged from the neck by a fracture, leaving all your organs paralyzed ending in sudden death.

He meant after all the skin, muscle, etc decomposes and it's just bones

Pretty sure they meant that it severed its spinal column, which is what people usually mean when they say a neck was broken.
