The man who plunged nine stories from a New Jersey high-rise and landed on a BMW has recovered from injuries and was released from a hospital, a city rep told The Post Friday.
The 31-year-old — who smashed through the roof of a black BMW 330i parked below 26 Journal Square in Jersey City when he jumped — had been in critical condition in the days after his dramatic fall on Oct. 6.
But despite a mangled right arm, possible internal injuries and bloody gashes on his head, the guy left a treatment center in mid-December, said Kimberly Wallace-Scalcione, a spokeswoman for Jersey City.
“The man survived and was released from the hospital last month,” she said of the still-unidentified man. The federal health privacy law HIPAA prevented her from going into more detail about his current condition, she said.

“I heard a big boom and I didn’t think it was a person at first,” Christina Smith, 21, who shot footage of the aftermath. “The back window of the car just busted out — exploded. Then the guy jumped up and started screaming. His arm was all twisted.”
Video she filmed shows the jumper — who didn’t work inside the building, and later said he “wanted to die” — screaming in pain with upper body injuries, and a face mask strap still dangling from his ear.

Suicidal man who leapt 100ft from New Jersey building and survived had crept onto ninth floor that was under construction
I’m glad he had the presence of mind to wear a mask while trying to commit suicide. No telling what he would have caught on his way down.
Wow
Whoa. Well, bud, if the good Lord sez it ain’t yer time, it ain’t yer time.
It was to stop the clouds of COVID spay from killing millions on his way down.
The face mask and his prior vaccination were what kept him from dying. It could have been much worse.
German engineering.....ya just can’t beat it.
If that’s a real photo...it means some “human” pulled out a phone to take a snap, rather than help the guy. SMH
Was it George’s car?
BMW should put the guys face on car safety and impact survival.
What’s with these idiotic hyphenated last names? Do these females think it gives them added authenticity?
Going to have to be treated for serious Depression.
Never seems to be able to complete anything he sets out to do.
🤣
BMW... “We use live human test impact trials to ensure you walk away from accidents”
The face mask and his prior vaccination were what kept him from dying.
Yes. The Vax gave him SUPER! immunity; and, the mask puffed out which slowed his decent...so I heard.
did they arrest him for improperly wearing a face mask?
“BMW should put the guys face on car safety and impact survival”
Might as well....it’s already imprinted on on the roof of one of their 330i models. Lol.
