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.

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

I guess it never occurred to this man to go to the bottom of the garbage chute and get the keys?

I don’t understand the concept of people living on top of each other.

I’m speechless. Some people are begging to die.

I doubt there were keys involved because the security camera didn’t see that. This was a double-dog dare from the first floor. He forgot about the incinerator.

A quarter to discovery.

And yet our country worships them. Our holidays. Our commercials. The rewriting and recasting of history. Our language...Our music...everything geared towards the most dysfunctional among us. We’d be taking smoke breaks on the moon if we didn’t have America’s original sin/everlasting burden placed around our necks.

Disgusting isn't it? Every. Single. Commercial. Tales from the Dark Side.

I got a vent brush stuck in a dryer vent due to stupidity. I recognize spur of the moment decisions that go wrong but this guy seems pretty stupid.

Luckily I was able to rectify my problem without death.

You can tell whomever wrote the article is an AA hire and does not use English as her primary language.

Medgar Evers Apartments? Like, WTF, man? WTF is Medgar Evars? Sounds like Section 8 housing for WEF detainees awaiting humane disposal.

The article was written by a white male graduate of the University of Texas. Journalism major. Per the interwebz.

That’s a good school. Not sure what they’re teaching these days other than pronouns and Marxism.
