The victim, 27, apparently jumped from a fourth-floor balcony at Lorimer St. near Meserole St. in East Williamsburg around 3 a.m., according to cops.

They found the bloodied victim, who was naked, sprawled out on the sidewalk in front of the building, suffering from multiple broken bones and internal injuries.

EMS rushed him to Bellevue Hospital, where he remained in critical condition Saturday afternoon. His name was not immediately disclosed.

The man was visiting a building tenant and was throwing furniture and other items off the balcony before falling himself, Isabella said.

Which is it? Did he jump or did he fall?

He was nude? What the heck? He throws furniture then throws himself, or falls? Drugs? Alcohol? Hold my beer?

Well, even if you jump from someplace high, there is always a certain amount of falling involved. So I say both.

The Brooklyn balcony guy was probably high on Meth, Coke, Everclear or some stimulant that makes an angry person magnitudes more angry than normal.

The Backflip guy was probably using too much modern day Hash, and maybe a smidgen of Mushrooms. Today’s Hash is reportedly many times more potent than what was available 40 years ago. Do not forget, many of the musicians he was listening to used to be in the Grateful Dead. That group and their followers were notorious for constant pot smoking, even before Rastafarians were a known quantity.

Drugs. A guy without clothes in Calgary broke into a house and charged a lady with an axe. She managed to run out the back door. The guy later apologized to the lady and said he did not remember breaking in and charging her. A second guy without clothes in Los Angeles broke into a house, killed a cat, killed a lady, climbed onto the roof and jumped to his death. Probably thought he could fly. Some drugs are potent.

Can’t get the article re links.

However, why is this man called “a victim”? A “victim” of whom, DeBlasio, eviction notice, unemployment due to Cuomo’s policies, drugs, MSNBC,CNN and The View?

More precisely, they won’t breed in the future. Who knows what they’ve done in the past?

Well, balcony jump guy didn’t die so he still has a chance to breed although, admittedly, if it gets around that you are the type that trashes apartments and jumps nude from balconies, it greatly diminishes your prospect of getting a quality mate.
