What???



This reminds me when I was hanging around another car forum, this guy apparently came back from a wild stag party so he was showing off what a great time he had posting many pix. We soon realized those strippers or party girls or whatever were not exactly who they were LOL. That guy never lived that down! Then again, one look at those pix, how can he not tell?? Then again, many ppl got fooled by that movie, but not me, how the hell was that a M Night-level movie twist? LMAO So obvious cmon!

^Ya, I remember that one too, sad it happened but why would he ever think of doing that even if the building stated this glass is shatter-proof even w 500 lb gorilla crashing into it? What if they were wrong? Just insane; trust nothing, esp if one's life depends on it. Think the firm went belly-up soon after, bad mojo.

Funny you should say that. When I read the first post in this thread my first thought was "I don't know about the others, but cmyx6go is here even if she is just lurking in the background."

Actually, the glass did not break/shatter. He bumped twice into it and the window frame gave way during the second bump (window popped out).

As he had done the 'gimmick' many times in the past, the repeated banging possibly weakened the window frame structure over time.

Ah ok, I forgot about that. Anyway, same thought applies, the structure of the whole thing, crazy he would test it w his life.

EDIT: ouch, he was officially awarded the Darwin, like there is an actual 'award'? Man...

I also forgot/didn't realize it was in a conference room, always thought he used his office.

Can you imagine the thoughts of regret going through your head the seconds before you splatter on the ground below?

No and I wanna keep it that way. This also applies to ppl jumping off bridges, etc. Those seconds must feel like an eternity.
