Planks for the chlorine in the gene pool.

Love the comments "I thought this was going to be a story about pirates"

If he planked all the way down, he gets style points.

Seems to have started in Japan with some girl who wanted to out do "flying girl", in going viral. If the 'taking pictures of yourself while falling off a balcony' trend takes off, then we'll certainly have dealt with the population pressure issue.

Look, there's always at least one "worst case scenario". You know; the guy that manages to gouge his eye out with something as safe as a spoon.

Even the head of Segway managed to prove that yes; you can kill yourself even on a fucking Segway.

The great irony would be if historically he proves to be the only one.

I think it's pretty safe to say that you can take just about any activity, no matter how inherently safe, and someone, somewhere, eventually will find a way to kill themselves at it.
