Two broken tailbones, a shattered humerus, and a traumatic brain injury in three incidents over five years.
As a person with back problems I cringed when I saw that video.
I confess I found most of the video funny, although just about any one of those could have ended badly.
But when I saw the pool jumper, I cringed. Not even the semblance of a smirk. Just a fraction of an instant after he hit the ice and it didn't break, I could feel that it would be very bad. I don't know about reproducing, but I think that it was his coccyx that took the brunt of the fall.
Either way, I felt is pain. Just not nearly as long as he did.
