18 ft. ? Did he land on his head, or is that a misprint?

I made a roadtrip there for an organizational event about 3 years ago and found out that climbing on top of the jumbotron is one of the things "to do" around campus. Apparently it's stupidly easy to climb up there. Hate to see it happen but it was bound to happen eventually.

Watch out for all the morality knights on their way from the SECR to chastise you for being scum of the earth.

Shitty way to die. Will forever be remembered as the drunken idiot who fell off the jumbotron. Prayers sent.

Cardiac arrest THEN fall?

How can they know that? That's one hell of an unfortunate series of events. I assume it was really the other way around. Did this guy have some heart condition?

So he died before he hit the ground? Crazy.

Probably was afraid of heights. Gets up there and has a panic attack that causes his heart to start failing, then loses his balance and falls off. Pure speculation but seems plausible imo.
