Brooklyn man falls to his death down garbage chute attempting to retrieve his KEYS after woman helped him get inside and another man looked on
Daily Mail UK ^ | August 13, 2022 | Alastair Talbot

Security camera footage from an apartment building in Brooklyn shows the puzzling moment when a man climbed into a garbage pit and plunged to his death, as a woman and another man looked on.

Video of the fatal incident came from the first floor corridor of the Medgar Evers apartments in Stuyvesant Heights at around 4am on Thursday. The unidentified man was later found mutilated at the bottom of the chute. He had plunged to his death 15 minutes before his body was discovered.

The NYPD has not commented on why the man went into the garbage chute, but neighbors are saying he was trying to retrieve his keys.

Authorities are also looking into whether the victim died directly from the fall or if he had mistakenly gone into the compactor portion of the dumpster, where he was found disfigured.

No evidence in the CCTV footage shows keys being dropped into the pit, as the man is seen talking to another man before opening the garbage chute's hatch and sliding half of his body inside.

He then seems to sit on the edge of the trash pit before deciding to lay down on the pit's hatch, held down by the woman, to go down the abyss, video shows.

The man and the other man continue to talk before his body is completely inside the chute and the hatch is closed.

The woman and the other man then lean inside the garbage pit to check on their friend, using their phones as a source of light.

The other man then goes inside the chute with his two arms and head, while the woman holds onto his lower body in a bid to prevent him from falling in.

Just wondering about the exit strategy here. "I've got the keys! Thaaaaaaaaanks!" Plop?

Because buying and then using a telescoping magnetic pick-up tool would be too logical?

...at around 4am on Thursday

There may be a clue somewhere in here.

Whenever I get into an elevator in my current State where the tallest building has five stories, and I see someone with keys in hand and their index finger through the key ring, I know I am in the presence of a fellow New Yorker.

Actually it was murder. She conned him with a promise of sex if he would retrieve her keys which she did not actually drop in there. So it boils down to outlawing sex an it is used in committing murder tall to often.

Good catch, he probably was the owner of a doughnut shop and late for work!

I hadn’t heard that. Then why did the other guy climb halfway in? Did she just offer him a BJ?

“Sounds like Section 8 housing...”

All of our subsidized housing ‘hoods in town have a “tree related” name. Pine Woods, Oak Hills, Aspen Acres, etc. Makes it easy to recognize the neighborhoods you DON’T want to be in after dark. Actually, have one close to our house. I’m pretty sure, whenever there’s a holiday in which fireworks play a big part...the residents there fire off multiple rounds from their favorite weapons. We stay inside the house.

WTF is Medgar Evars?

Medgar Evers was a civil rights leader, assassinated on 6/12/63 by white supremacist Byron de la Beckwith.

His brother Charles was also a civil rights leader, who wrote the book, Have No Fear. It's an unvarnished look at a black man growing up in Jackson, MS. It's an excellent book, though NSFW.

Well there it is, the stupidest thing I will read all day and it’s only 2:26 AM
= = =

Yes, pretty darn stupid all right but,

you have about 21 1/2 hours for something more exceedingly stupid to show up.

And lately, it has been happening.

I say, ‘It can’t get any worse’, then it does.

How about that woman in the Olympic Rain Forest who went down into the outhouse to get her dropped phone back.

There is a difference between micro and macro. 99.7% of my micro experiences have been great. But the macro is destroying this country. And 50% of white morons are perpetuating it.
