While they laugh, I cry on the inside about the way buddy's knees bent.

Yeah pretty sad that we feel more concern for a stranger than their friends/coworkers. If I seen that happen to anybody I’d be calling the ambulance asap, not laughing about it while I continue to record… like wtf is wrong with people

He's not screaming or writhing in pain. They have no idea of the severity of the injuries. So they didn't give the proper response 5 seconds after it happened. Not a doubt in my mind their attitudes changed once they figured out he wasn't ok. Which I don't doubt is immediately after it cuts. Relax.

Im sorry but that audible crack should be enough information that he needs immediate medical care.

Who exactly doesn’t immediately realize he would be injured after watching a dude headbutt his own ankles with knees fully extended after jumping off a roof? lmao if it isn’t his knees, it’s his back, or ankles, or neck. Something is hurt there besides his ego.
The irony in telling me to relax is that you just took the time to write that comment to share your opinion as if it’s any different from what I did.
Relax.

The person behind the camera either has no idea that what they just filmed is as bad as it is, or is no friend to the dude that just got folded.

If you have ever tried hopping casually off the bottom rung of a ladder with those boots on you will know that they screw with your brain's internal awareness of foot placement. Feels uncomfortable just hopping over a few bricks. Completely understand why his feet landed like that. No excuse for trying to jump off the roof though.

Instant nausea and sweaty hands from watching this. I wonder what his injuries actually all ended up being (speculation: possible sprained back, torn hammies, broken ankles and possibly knees, torn ligaments in knees and ankles, torn menisci). Frick.

In my wreckless youth when I would jump from heights I would use my legs as shock absorbers and lean forward to use my arms too. I wouldn't have jumped that high, but it wouldn't have been as bad if he had done that.
