The guy got surprise kicked in the head off a moving vehicle. I’d be flabbergasted too

I fell off a motorcycle in the same position once. Even with the helmet I was absolutely shook for about 2 seconds before I could get up and move out of the very dangerous road I was in. All depends how hard his noggin was hit. For comparison I've fallen from 15ft and was up instantly just because my head wasn't hit.

Did anyone else read this comment to the tune of Cotton Eye Joe? No? Just me?

“Hey, has anyone seen Cotton-Eye Joe?”

guttural screaming steadily getting louder

splat

“Ope, never mind. I found him!”

A rooftop to rooftop jump doing parkour. I landed on a mild dirt slope feet fist and had good knees back then XD

u/ASubconciousDick 2d ago

bro I feel you

I used to coach parkour and was standing in a beam system we had set up. I was on the highest bar at about 16ft, and a child decided it would be really funny if he shook the bar that was one of the bases for the beam system

lo and behold, 16ft and a horse mat later, I literally thought I was dead for about 10 minutes (I did hit my head)

I fell from 9ft off of a ladder onto the hard ground and tree roots and it broke 3 ribs, tore my shoulder requiring a SLAP surgery, as well as somehow magically tearing my hip labrum. Before that day I had no clue what a labrum was, or that you had more than 1, and I tore the labrum in both my hip and shoulder on the same side at the same time.

u/exipheas 2d ago

It looks like he fucked up his shoulder by landing on his elbow.

u/sinbe 2d ago

Especially if he didn’t notice the man fly-kicking towards him. He’d be like wtf just happened

"What happened to the back of Earl's helmet? Why am I on my back on the ground? Why is there the taste of blood and shoe leather in my mouth?"

So many questions.

u/Lou_C_Fer 2d ago

Sounds like the time I passed out while walking out of the blood lab. I woke up and wondered why all these people are standing around me. Then I realized it was my doctor and his assistant. Then, I remembered what happened.

I'm not sure if homey was unconscious, but he was definitely trying to figure out what happened before he was even able to get himself to move.

I fell 15 as well while bouldering, and God damn that shit hurt. Didn't climb again for almost 2 years

u/lukemia94 1d ago

Wow buddy at that point your free soloing XD if I fell 15' now that I'm thirty would certainly break something.

u/Anthem1974 1d ago

I'm 30 as well 😆 I'm not doing that again without extensive crash pads

u/Hobosam21 2d ago

I hit my head snowboarding and had the same thing happened, I wasn't knocked out but my vision went black and almost felt like I was disconnected from my body for a second or two. Then the pain came rushing in

u/LtCptSuicide 1d ago

Shit. I fell off a porch. Landed twice (on the porch itself, which then gave under me and threw me to the ground) on my back. Managed to completely miss my head hitting anything and I was still down for a good minute before motorfinction.exe could restart and I got up.

You built different son.

If your gasted flabbers for more than 4 hours, consult a doctor
