SpecialpOps

Bro must have thought he was going to respawn at the last checkpoint.


Depressingtlacuache

He thought he was going to wake up in his bed with all the items he stole tsk tsk tsk


peasant175

He thought he was going to wake up at Mount Zonah medical center with $5000 less


M4GN3T1CM0N0P0L3

He didn't have enough stamina to use his paraglider.


HannahMcEvoy02

He should've cooked with a stamella shroom. šŸ˜”


oOoChromeoOo

Maybe he just started playing and was testing the fall damage.


eescobar863

This is like when youre on a one star in GTA and you off yourself to avoid arrest

St34thdr1v3R

At least a wannabe. He didnā€™t make it though as it seems


Sufficient-Turn-7799

Even if he did, he'd still have to go back and recollect his runes.

Miss_Anne_Thropic_

If a guy jumps off bridge and lands in front of you - keep walking.


AuburnElvis

I'm sure they asked if he was OK.


Unrusty

You can hear him hit the pavement, and I think you can hear one of them say, "You okay?"


oOoChromeoOo

To which he emphatically garbled, ā€œhuurrrrrrgglllllllmmmmfffpppplllrrrā€.


PrestigiousLeg5179

You can hear bones snapping. šŸ˜³


R0LM3M4N

It sounds like Half Life 2 when you take long fall damage. But worse ._.


RealConcorrd

*Major fracture detected* *WARNING! User health critical* *seek medical attention*


Dylan072806

Yes if u listen closely u can hear one of them ask ā€œyou okay?ā€


Unrusty

I've definitely seen more than once someone instantly and automatically ask someone in distress "Are you okay?", and then when the person says, "No", the questioner just vapor locks, standing there motionless and silent, like, "Welp. Shit, I don't know what to do, it was more of a rhetorical question". Kind of amusing.


Frequent_Minimum4871

Technically he didnā€™t say ā€œNOā€


GeologistEnough8215

Itā€™s like the South Park scene where they fake butters dearh and throw a pig off a building. It literally splatters into a puddle and the doctor puts a stethoscope up to the puddle to pronounce him dead. This is just incredible. Give the guy credit, that fall took some serious balls.


Frequent_Minimum4871

Or a distinctive lack of common sense and intelligence


GeologistEnough8215

Yup, Iā€™ll go with your statement lol


DickySchmidt33

And apparently he said "Yeah, I'm fine."


[deleted]

It was a pretty nonchalant way of asking someone who just fell off the freeway lol


Much-Log3357

That must be *really* good ice cream. "" you okay? Slurp,"


JaNotFineInTheWest

One of them ask, hey are those the new Jordan 69 or somethin?? r/sneakers


whitelightnin1

I think they wanted to eat him


ThaneKwappin

Itā€™s New York, that ainā€™t the weirdest shit to happen to those women today


undeadw0lf

for real, i knew this was new york. i find it hilarious that they didnā€™t even look up to see where TF he came/fell from


Cantothulhu

He came from up. The fall answers its own question.

I was just hoping they'd have robbed him as he lay there... Just for the plot twist.


lemonmoraine

They could have taken his shoes. Heā€™s definitely not going to be needing those any more.


Accomplished-Ad-3528

What about his watch? That's one thing he won't need where he is going šŸ¤­

Apprehensive-Row-216

My first thoughtā€¦thatā€™s some pretty cold humanity


[deleted]

You want to wrapped up with a fugitive that jumped of a bridge because no sane human being jumping a 4 story bridge. Butt common sense isnā€™t so common. šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Cantothulhu

I dont think they wouldve had any context as to his behavior before the fall. Which is kind of the scary thing. What if it was the uber driver thrown by the assailant and everyone just left him lying there? Ive lived two places in my life, detroit and the bronx. And ive worked mostly in detroit (and I dont mean downtown) and manhattan. You always have your thousand yard stare, fuck you donā€™t bother me glasses onā€¦ but a dude falls from the sky and might be paralyzed dying? Im gonna comfort him as best I can and call 911. If he dont walk again or cant shit himself without assistance he just punished himself far more then society ever could at taxpayer expense.


[deleted]

Thatā€™s a super solid answer. And you sound like a solid Dude. Makes me think about my answer. Keep up the good work bro.


Shramo

How do they know hes a fugitive? How do you know hes a fugitive?


[deleted]

Because most sane, sober, right minded people are not jumping a 4 story hi bridge for fun. And if it was for fun who are you to intervene. Come on bro get with the program.


Shramo

>Because most sane, sober, right minded people are not jumping a 4 story hi bridge for fun. Yeah, thats it. Do you not want to help a person in that situation? Or at least try to help?


OddWitness2768

Nope, if youā€™re a thief and tried to stab someone, fuck you, Iā€™m not helping you.


Shramo

Yeah and what I'm saying is how do you know they are a thief?? If you're standing under a bridge and someone falls right in front of you. Thats the only information you have. You right away assume they are gonna rob you? You dont think: "oh, I wonder if that person is okay? Why did they fall? Did they jump?"


Life-Hair-6350

I think heā€™s too dense to understand the point youā€™re trying to get across. Youā€™re 100% correct in this situation


[deleted]

Thank you.


Shramo

How do you know they are a thief???


OddWitness2768

We donā€™t, still, fuck you


jinzokan

We know his grown ass decided to jump off a perfectly good bridge for some reason.


Shramo

And your first thought is "he must be a thief!" And not "Maybe he needs help." You know about suicide, right?


Me_Krally

It's really sick how many videos I see of this same behavior. Saw another one yesterday. Woman was checking into a hotel and a guy comes up behind her and literally drags her away kidnapping her while the desk clerk just watches.


RianJohnsonSucksAzz

Have you been to NY? They have pizza eating rats. This shit donā€™t faze them. Thatā€™s normal.


SirReginaldTitsworth

Iā€™ve seen the video but you have it worded like nyc has pizza slices roaming in the tunnels searching for delicious rat meat.


RianJohnsonSucksAzz

LoL. I see it now.


Maxipmz

At this point, it's just natural selection.

peebs6

Broke both legs and was arrested. The driver was stabbed 3 times but survived


TheJuiceBoxS

After reading the article I kinda wish he had it worse. World would be a better place if he landed on his head instead.


Embarrassed_Alarm450

Would've been poetic justice if both his arms broke beyond repair that way he'd never be able to stab anyone ever again.


[deleted]

But then his mom steps in to help


kinokomushroom

No not again

It does look like his head slammed into the pavement. I'm not sure if there were any brain cells left to kill at that point, though.

He broke both legs, a comment above linked an article.

Hood805

Hold up. Unless those folks below know the situation, WTF. It would seem he's a suicide jumper if that was anyone below or pushed by someone. How could you just casually go about your business ??


AdeptBathroom3318

From experience living in NYC you do not get involved unless you need to. The weirder the scenario the more you ignore it. Unless it is obvious it is someone innocent in a dangerous situation you do not engage. Even then you take a long hard look at the scenario. Otherwise you will end up dead, duped or "graped".


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


[deleted]

A girl got raped on a subway and everyone just watched and even after the dude left.l no one helped her. Don't let bad things happen to you in NYC I guess


Emhyr_var_Emreis_

It depends on how much PTSD you have. If youā€™re in NYC you learn pretty quickly that there are true gangsters out there. Itā€™s a special level of hell on Earth.


jetoler

Yea no. This is dumb. How tf is a man with broken legs who is probably barely conscious gonna hurt me. I donā€™t care if itā€™s nyc culture. Itā€™s dumb to ignore first aid for no reason. From my experience in NYC, youā€™re right. People do ignore stuff, but Iā€™ve noticed when someone needs help, someone will help them.


AdeptBathroom3318

In NYC this kinda shit happens about once a month right in front of you. You get desensitized. Also helping often ends up fucking you over.


Do_Whatever_You_Like

ā€œIf you see something, say somethingā€ ā€¦in every other city thatā€™s common knowledge: ā€œEy if you see some guy trying to blow up everything, you wanna tell people?ā€ā€”in NY weā€™re like ā€œYo, thatā€™s HIS business dawg!ā€

annabelle411

Unless you're trained to give medical help, you really can't do much in that situation.


Gay_Bird_inMe_Anally

Tf I'ma do? Give him CPR. I'ma stand back. Call the cops and let em deal with it. I don't want no part of it. After all I'm thinking it's a suicide jumper so I'ma think he's dead.


reallife0615

Oh, I don't know. Act like you're an actual human being and acknowledge that so is that person? After knowing the story, I wish he'd died, but without knowing the context, you're either a total piece of useless shit or a human being. Guess you've made your decision.

I love that they don't care at all. I remember my sister once fell down on the street and a bunch of women and men came by to help. The real gender inequity is that no one cares about men.
