It might have well been a better choice than what was going on 40 floors up....

How do you land on a BACK SEAT after crashing through a windshield???

By crashing through the rear windshield.

Check out the Free Fall Research Page.

There are some amazing stories there.

He redefined back seat banging...

Didn’t a guy fall on George’s car in a Seinfeld episode? It amazes me how EVERYTHING seems to remind me of something that happened in Seinfeld.

HIGHLANDER!!!!

Yesterday this was reported as 39 stories. Which is it?

I saw a story yesterday that said he jumped from the sixth floor of a 40-story building.

There are unconfirmed reports that the Dodge belonged to a shoe salesman from Chicago.

“It amazes me how EVERYTHING seems to remind me of something that happened in Seinfeld.”

Yup. The show that everyone thought was about nothing has turned out to be as accurate as Nostradamus in foreseeing future events. Of course, I don’t remember any episode in which a black president was elected who proceeded to trash the country in only 18 months.

It's 40 stories if you include the mezzanine.

It would be like watching the opening scene of “Mad Men”, if he was wearing a suit.

Thomas Magill jumped...

I don't normally advocate suicide, but when you are so incompetent that you fail to kill yourself jumping from a 40 story building....

[TommyDale]

LOL!!

[PoloSec]

If he chose to land on a Volvo...he may not have broken his legs.

The car's owner, Guy McCormack, of Old Bridge, N.J., told the Daily News he's convinced that rosary beads he kept inside the Dodge saved Magill's life.
