"I just didn't make it," Bargfrede said.

It is amazing he was even able to make this statement.

What I think is funny is how they quote the kid saying he didn't make it, and then go on telling us that the kid survived. I would imagine a quot would have been much harder to come by had the kid not survived.

I realize he didn't die, but can we give him an honorary Darwin award, clearly he'll kill himself doing some other stupid stunt.

Me, too. I wonder what he landed on. I went on a call where a guy bailed ninety feet into a shallow stream with an uneven rock surface. About a quarter of the top of his head split open, and his arms and legs were like those koozie tube toys kids play with at the pool. We had to slide a bag under him, as he would have come apart if we'd tried to pick him up like a normal victim. I've seen ninety foot, sixty foot and thirty foot falls. Thirty isn't too bad if they don't land on a hard surface on their head, ninety is gnarly.
