I've jumped from an 60/70 foot bridge into a river in Horseshoe Bend, Idaho. This guy's hang time was comparable to that hang time.
I'm sure we could put together an amount of money to arrange you making that jump. You've done it before, right?

That bridge is probably two stories higher and I'm 2x the age so unless you are offering 6 figures that's going to be a no for me dawg.
It appears to be 2x the height I thought it was. What an idiot.

My God that's suicidal. The camera really tricked me. His hang time was insane.

That seems like a suicide attempt more than a desire to get famous

Darwin Award semi-finalist. Within a year he will win it

My guess is jumping is attempted suicide and you can get a ticket for it even from the road level.

Quite the thud when he hits the water.

Unfortunately, he survived.

Looks like he will have long term brain damage

It is at least 120 to 130 feet minimum. 160 to 170 might be accurate. It looks like 60 feet to the road deck. It’s more than double that to the top. Je is lucky he didn’t break a leg or fracture some ribs the way he jumped. You have to dive or go feet first. I have only done about 40 feet. No way I would do that.
What an idiot!!

He's lucky he didn't knock himself out and then just drown

I would love to know how tall that bridge is. The two sources I've found only mention clearance below which is either 72' or 100'. Even if it's 72' that is a total jump of 160'+ depending on how tall the rest of the bridge structure is.
The official world record jump is under 200', I believe.

So I ended up watching some of his other videos a little while ago and damn i feel bad now. The dude has some obvious mental issues. Hes basically been transient this last year, moving from texas to new york, to somewhere else, back to texas, and plans to go to california. Rambled a lot about not having money, his desire for fame and likening his struggles to youtube stars that succeeded, saying things like they lived with friends and in their cars and they did it so i can and yadda yadda.
Idk.. dude has some serious mental issues and wanted to die. I hope his family wakes up and gets him the help he needs

He went to Texas A&M University. That explains everything.

Don’t we have a HS kid in physics that can time his jump and estimate the height??
Regardless, that’s high AF. Death wish for sure, especially for someone that hasn’t jumped from heights before.
My max is like 45-50’ from a waterfall in Hawaii. Can’t imagine jumping from where this dude jumped from and thinking he was going to survive.
