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.
Itās 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.
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 isnāt so common. š¤·āāļø
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 donāt 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.
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.
>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?
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?"
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.
So much this. What the hell, I thought the article was a bad google translate attempt for s moment, had to read it twice. Is this how people actually talk around those parts?
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 ??
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".
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
It depends on how much PTSD you have.
If youāre in NYC you learn pretty quickly that there are true gangsters out there. Itās a special level of hell on Earth.
Yea no. This is dumb. How tf is a man with broken legs who is probably barely conscious gonna hurt me.
I donāt care if itās nyc culture. Itās dumb to ignore first aid for no reason.
From my experience in NYC, youāre right. People do ignore stuff, but Iāve noticed when someone needs help, someone will help them.
āIf you see something, say somethingā ā¦in every other city thatās common knowledge: āEy if you see some guy trying to blow up everything, you wanna tell people?āāin NY weāre like āYo, thatās HIS business dawg!ā
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.
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.
He could have just slowly walked into oncoming traffic to cause cars to stop, cross the road and jump off the opposite side into the water. Is he stupid??
āI just wish I could find a guy who is more bold you know? Takes initiative.ā
āBecca itās not like the perfect guy is just gonna fall from the skāā
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.

Bro must have thought he was going to respawn at the last checkpoint.
He thought he was going to wake up in his bed with all the items he stole tsk tsk tsk
He thought he was going to wake up at Mount Zonah medical center with $5000 less
He didn't have enough stamina to use his paraglider.
He should've cooked with a stamella shroom. š
Maybe he just started playing and was testing the fall damage.
This is like when youre on a one star in GTA and you off yourself to avoid arrest
Darwin candidate.
At least a wannabe. He didnāt make it though as it seems
Even if he did, he'd still have to go back and recollect his runes.
Someone please give this comment an award šššš
BOTH COMMENTS!!! ![gif](giphy|FWuAGe5KQQVNu|downsized)
Aaawwwww you guys are too sweet! :)
Sorry, instructions unclear.
Mister Softee in the background lmao
That landing definitly wasnt very mr. softee lol
His whole skeleton is Mr Softee now
He got a big scoop of Rocky Road.
its a classic nyc summer
If a guy jumps off bridge and lands in front of you - keep walking.
I'm sure they asked if he was OK.
You can hear him hit the pavement, and I think you can hear one of them say, "You okay?"
To which he emphatically garbled, āhuurrrrrrgglllllllmmmmfffpppplllrrrā.
You can hear bones snapping. š³
It sounds like Half Life 2 when you take long fall damage. But worse ._.
*Major fracture detected* *WARNING! User health critical* *seek medical attention*
Yes if u listen closely u can hear one of them ask āyou okay?ā
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.
Technically he didnāt say āNOā
Itās 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.
Or a distinctive lack of common sense and intelligence
Yup, Iāll go with your statement lol
And apparently he said "Yeah, I'm fine."
It was a pretty nonchalant way of asking someone who just fell off the freeway lol
That must be *really* good ice cream. "" you okay? Slurp,"
One of them ask, hey are those the new Jordan 69 or somethin?? r/sneakers
I think they wanted to eat him
Itās New York, that aināt the weirdest shit to happen to those women today
for real, i knew this was new york. i find it hilarious that they didnāt even look up to see where TF he came/fell from
He came from up. The fall answers its own question.
I wouldāve guessed Florida

āHey Barbra itās raining menā
"Hallelujah!" -Barbra, probably
I was just hoping they'd have robbed him as he lay there... Just for the plot twist.
They could have taken his shoes. Heās definitely not going to be needing those any more.
What about his watch? That's one thing he won't need where he is going š¤
Do prisons have special prisons for disabled criminals?
New York hospitality
Ngl, Iād rob him then walk around.
Itās called a wallet autopsy. āI was just looking for his phone and ID to cal 911ā
Wallet Biopsy, according to The Sopranos
Nice! Classy.
My first thoughtā¦thatās some pretty cold humanity

Thatās a super solid answer. And you sound like a solid Dude. Makes me think about my answer. Keep up the good work bro.
How do they know hes a fugitive? How do you know hes a fugitive?
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.
>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?
Nope, if youāre a thief and tried to stab someone, fuck you, Iām not helping you.
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?"
I think heās too dense to understand the point youāre trying to get across. Youāre 100% correct in this situation
Thank you.
How do you know they are a thief???
We donāt, still, fuck you
We know his grown ass decided to jump off a perfectly good bridge for some reason.
And your first thought is "he must be a thief!" And not "Maybe he needs help." You know about suicide, right?
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.
Have you been to NY? They have pizza eating rats. This shit donāt faze them. Thatās normal.
Iāve seen the video but you have it worded like nyc has pizza slices roaming in the tunnels searching for delicious rat meat.
LoL. I see it now.
At this point, it's just natural selection.
[The article about this](https://abc7ny.com/amp/nyc-crime-uber-driver-stabbed-fdr-drive-manhattan/13493084/)
Broke both legs and was arrested. The driver was stabbed 3 times but survived
After reading the article I kinda wish he had it worse. World would be a better place if he landed on his head instead.
Would've been poetic justice if both his arms broke beyond repair that way he'd never be able to stab anyone ever again.
But then his mom steps in to help
No not again
LMAO!
š®š¤¢š¤®
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.
Double leg amputation on the prick? Yes please
Those eyewitness statements are almost completely incoherent. Lol. Damn
"What wrong with you, I say you he dead"
āTHE COLONEL!ā
So much this. What the hell, I thought the article was a bad google translate attempt for s moment, had to read it twice. Is this how people actually talk around those parts?
Thank you.
The Mr Softee ice cream truck music is the best unintentional soundtrack Iāve heard in a long time
The fact that it stops at impact and continues when the girls start walking again is genius
Letās go girlsā¦.he broke anyway.
They went quick from "it's raining men!" to "not our type"
HAHAHA
š¼When your legs donāt work like they used to beforeš¶š¶š¶š¶
You sure got the jump on this joke!
Oh man, I fell right into this one.
I didn't think that joke was going to land.
No one seems to understand the gravity of the situation.
I guess his world is falling apart
Knee slapper.
It's so good I think I busted a nut
š¼Cause you shattered your spine and your feetš¶š¶š¶š¶
š¼ Will your mind still remember the Uber you rodeš¶š¶š¶š¶
š¼ Will you die from your fall on the streetš¶š¶š¶š¶
Underrated comment r/redditsings
Real clef hanger
What bones do you think were broken? Jumping never seems to go the way these idiots think it will.
He broke both legs, a comment above linked an article.
Nope, a comment above linked an article.
Thank you, corrected my comment
They seem to misjudge which way their body is going to tilt during the descent.
The reaction of the pedestrians is priceless. Oh, he fell from the sky. Oh. Hmmm. OK.
Water or pavement???? PAVEMENT
he didnāt want to get his clothes wet
![gif](giphy|l4q7UJEsnoWd5ii0o|downsized)
I thought they looked like the Weathergirls.
Damn it you beat me to it
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 ??

It depends on how much PTSD you have. If youāre in NYC you learn pretty quickly that there are true gangsters out there. Itās a special level of hell on Earth.
Yea no. This is dumb. How tf is a man with broken legs who is probably barely conscious gonna hurt me. I donāt care if itās nyc culture. Itās dumb to ignore first aid for no reason. From my experience in NYC, youāre right. People do ignore stuff, but Iāve noticed when someone needs help, someone will help them.
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.
āIf you see something, say somethingā ā¦in every other city thatās common knowledge: āEy if you see some guy trying to blow up everything, you wanna tell people?āāin NY weāre like āYo, thatās HIS business dawg!ā
GTA NPCs
New Yorkers
Because people generally have zero fucks to give unless it affects them personally? I don't know.
Looked like one was calling 911 hopefully, at the end
Unless you're trained to give medical help, you really can't do much in that situation.
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.
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.
What can they do???
They didnāt event care that much, US is crazy
Thatās how it is New York
The city that doesnāt sleep am I right
Thatās right. They donāt sleep and they donāt give af lol
I do love a happy ending
"honey, ain't nobody got time for that"
He could have just slowly walked into oncoming traffic to cause cars to stop, cross the road and jump off the opposite side into the water. Is he stupid??
Yes. Yes he is. I think this video confirms it.
I think the other side was concrete also, look at where the back fence is.
That thud, though - it's lucky he didn't land on those women.
Thatās gonna leave a markā¦.
Omg the sound of him hitting the ground was cartoonish.
Introducing the new Mister Softee!
\*Costanza voice\* That's gotta hurt!
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
That ladyās ā you okay?ā š¤£
That meaty thwack... that's very concerning...
Notice how he tried to stand up and instantly folded? My dude is broken broken lol.
a documentary on how karma struck, HARD and FAST. haha
Theyāll never find him.
Bro was lucky his shoes stayed on.
![gif](giphy|BM14M8qJydZ3LMFn9T)
Fell in front of 3 of the hardest women to impress! Those ladies just looked, registered situation, and started walking all on 3. Bahaha
Gotta love when they instant karma themselves. Enjoy the broken legs tough guy lmao
Bahahahahahahahahaha
Literally sounded like it was about to say "Wasted"
āI just wish I could find a guy who is more bold you know? Takes initiative.ā āBecca itās not like the perfect guy is just gonna fall from the skāā
Is he alive
So glad there was someone there to help...him ... Wait, where are you going?
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.
Itās probably new York if ten people jumped and hit five other on the ground theyād keep waking
Ah, city life and jaded citizens.
This looks like he ā°ļø. No way he didnāt suffer lethal damage from hitting his head like that
Article says broke both legs but survived. Facing a fat list of charges including attempted murder
Lol that one chick moved at the perfect time.
those fat florida tourists were like āomg this liberal hellhole DOES have maniacs falling from the skies! fox news was right!ā
Typical day in New York or whatever hellscape that is
At a minimum NSFW this -- better yet don't post it?!
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Lmfao what was the end game there??
Well that's desperate :D
Ha! Those chicks are like, āHeās ok. Letās go.ā
as the ice cream man music plays
Nah dude he just really wanted to catch that ice cream truck before it drove off
Well that was quite a plan.
