Trying to entertain the crowd, Sifiso Thabete botched a backflip by landing on the back of his head/neck. He was initially ridiculed, but days later, he has died.

Would you say he was head over heels with bodybuilding?

I cut back flips all the time when drunk.....maybe I should re think that

Shouldn't have skipped neck day.

It's not graphic, he just lands on his back. It looks to me like he had never done a backflip before in his life

That wasn't a backflip
Correct. He didn't have enough rotation for the full backflip. More like a gainer.

Holy crap. I watched that video a couple of days ago before he died.

Yeahhhh
That wasn't ever going to end well for him.
I'm trying to remember the name for that reflexive response he did right after, but it's an instant hallmark of acute traumatic neurological injury.

These guys are dehydrated as hell. Trying to perform any type of stunt in that condition is DAF

I can't do a backflip because I would never try a backflip.

So FoxNews videos have digressed to LiveLeak levels?

Why would anyone who can't put their arms together over their head attempt a backflip..
