The world is a dangerous place, more so if you're stupid.
and I believe he is correct.
I believe its the educational facilities that are to blame...I mean ..c'mon this guy obliviously... didnt belong in college....

I learned a long time ago jumping off things hurt. I knew a kid that swan dove off the top of that bridge that crossed the Illinois River. Not from the road but from the very top. Broke his neck, he lived but never recovered.
I think part of the problem is kids having kids...then letting grandma & grandpa raise them... and sadly grandma & grandpa aren't physically able to keep up with the kids and monitor them properly.... or realize how much technology has changed.
And these fools getting themselves seriously hurt doesn't wise them up. Just look at the kids who have broken their arms, legs and other bones several times while doing skate board tricks or ski jumping, or motorcycle jumping. Their thinking is, "Hey, I'm not having to pay for the medical bills. If I can't work the government will support me.
I think these kids / teens today think life is just a big game or adventure. I don't know any teens... relatives included... who even think about getting older and preparing for their retirement yrs. They want to marry the first person that they fall in puppy love with... just kids having more kids... dumbing down the population. I've got a 23 yr old nephew that could't mow a yard on his own, change the oil in his car or even the tire. Pretty pathetic. It is all playing video games and Facebook on his smart phone... that his parents still pay for. He has a job working at some college... one with a title but little paycheck assisting some professor.

Some human traits can be fixed. Some cannot.
All of which can be fixed...
Unfortunately for the stupid - stupid can't be fixed. Which come to think of it is pretty much why the nanny state is finding so much favor with the masses.

I jumped and dove from top of that bridge more than a few times. Lookin back it was dumb.
Common sense is an oxymoron. Always has been.
And, if he had stuck the landing, it would probably have still messed him up. CB
