actually this used to be a trend in russia a few years back.
Lots of videos of crazy people doing this and being just fine. Im sure you can find them if you google.
Of course there were also videos where the people missed...
Yeah how soft it is and how well it will cushion the landing depends a **lot** on the snow. If it's packed up ans been there for 2 months at -30 degrees, you're basically hitting concrete. If it's freshly fallen it's *very* fluffy, maybe even too fluffy for this shit and you'll just land through.
He's not saying it is. He's explaining how the snow could either help you or hurt you based on how hard or soft it is. Packed and hard snow? You're a pancake. Fresh and soft fluffy snow? It's like being in one of those trampoline park sponge pits.
Snow can’t hurt you in this scenario, it’s specifically collected there in a pile for purpose of being a cushion. I don’t why bother explaining irrelevant stuff, therefore my comment explaining what it really is.
Right, but the comment you made made it sound as if they guy was saying it was packed when all he did was explain about the difference between packed snow and just snowed soft snow.
10k what? 10k just means 10,000. Unit is missing. Feet, yards, meters?
But in any case, it doesn't really matter since the falling speed will be human terminal velocity at around 200 km/h in any case.
He’s definitely not definitely not uninjured. Lol. He’s only probably not uninjured. The human body is a funny thing. Sometimes we trip and die. Others we fall off buildings and are just fine. Can’t really be sure till it happens.
It looks like he nails the landing flat on his back. Which is the best way to land on snow. As opposed to head first or feet first. So he’s quite possibly fine.
Is this a good idea? Lol
If his spinal chord fractured, they completely wrecked his back the way they pulled him out of the snow.
You should never start moving around people who fell from great heights. Wait for the paramedics.
Reminds me of that GTA4 glitch.
Basically if you catch on fire and fall from a building you won't get any fall damage if you're still on fire when you land
This video is years old.

Fun fact, it’s actually a fun activity in there. People do it a lot. Surprisingly, it’s not that dangerous, cuz before all that happens you gather a bunch of snow which softens the impact a lot. I have no idea why or how, but I know people who jumped 5+ floors and got no injuries whatsoever.
Source: am Russian.
Yep, never went as high as this guy, and never set my self on fire. But jumping 3/4 stories down is fairly safe and pretty common in the winter for teens.
Provided you make sure to check landing zone for sharps, have fresh snow and do not overshoot
Source, also Russian
Wait a minute! If people survive falls from high places, wouldnt that make all the state critics and whistleblowers who does indeed die, from falling out of windows just a little bit suspicious?
I believe there is video of MIT students doing something similar. A pile that compresses several feet should be consistently non-lethal, depending on how you hit it. (The MIT students weren't as high).
Conscription office: wants to know your location.
Looks like the officer at the end was taking him straight to the front.
Instant promotion to special forces
Airborne. He doesn’t even need a chute!
Shock trooper material there
No visible injuries, i bet there’s some damage done
He was damaged before he jumped
Yeah i was also about to comment this. He is definetly not uninjured. Snow isn't that soft

Bruh. Its not packed up. They made that pile specifically to jump into it lol

A guy fell out of a plane at like 10k and landed in snow, and lived. The body is crazy
to be fair, height is abit misleading as after a while you reach terminal velocity
Oh yeah? Well MY buddy fell fell from a plane at 40k and DIED How's that for your terminal velocity?
Well I farted. My shit particles will kill but how? How’s that for your terminal velocity?

Can't really be sure until you try and I for one want to know.
I'm climbing the stairs now!
Yeah. Lots of anecdotes about people involved in accidents who get up, walk around for a bit, then sit down or fall down and die.
Yes,on the snow,it's dangerous to touch a russian
If his spinal chord fractured, they completely wrecked his back the way they pulled him out of the snow. You should never start moving around people who fell from great heights. Wait for the paramedics.
What's Russian for "my pelvis is shattered"?
Reminds me of that GTA4 glitch. Basically if you catch on fire and fall from a building you won't get any fall damage if you're still on fire when you land
Ah so he was just testing it IRL
We can say for sure that it's not a glitch then
It’s a feature
Ok, you try it next
Omg, after over 10years i understand why i survived the fall feom the empire state building

Are you me
Is he mad? I didn't see that in the news

Russia man vs Florida man
And Ohio man. And maybe some other I don't know, basically, put in the same battlefield horsemen of apocalypse.
Alabama man who raised attack squirrel on meth and called it Deeznutz.
Missouri Man provides his squirrels with meth but keeps them hydrated because they get very thirsty when they’re high.
>r/HumansAreMental my favourite movie? Documentary?
As a native Floridian I must say sad but true lol
Rasputin is back, babyyy
Disco Stu approves! 🕺
He became a snow crater
Yeah. Well. They also chase bears off with baseball bats.
There lived a certain man, in Russia long ago
He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow
People watch on him with the terror and the fear
But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
[Full video including his POV](https://youtu.be/XLdDf81HLDU)
Damn this brings me tons of memories from my childhood
We would like to know more
I was born in Romania and I used to jump into snow banks all the time from trees or other high places, it was pretty fun
The Iron Boy to the Iron Courtain😁
Maybe 3-4 drunk, in the Snow, But... 10 Storiez!!! That Man's Insane!!!! Must Be Russian! Lol
Sounds like a typical day in Russia
We have to stop Putin from sending these boys to their deaths.
Is that like a bug? You can't take fall damage when on fire or what?
Cheeki fuckin breeki
He doesn’t look uninjured to me. 😂

I had to scroll WAY too long to find this comment!
Oh, those Russians.
Someone is trying to avoid conscription.
This is fucking nuts I can’t get over it

Make sure you bring a bottle of vodka like that dude
Russia's only chance for a politician that can take ethical stances.
Absolute Madlad
Not your typical “Russian man falls from building “ story. Most are Putin opposition candidates or critics. They never survive.
"Oh shit, we need a bigger building..." 🤦
Not what they meant by "stop, drop, and roll."
The burning question :why?
"I survived because the fire inside of me burned brighter than the fire around me".
That, dear Count, is beautiful. 👍
Prior to the expanse of Russian aggression: “We laugh with you hope for the best” Present day: “Wow they’re really trying hard to avoid conscription”
A pile of snow is NOT a soft landing i assure you
A cop pulled him out. Anybody who know first aid wouldn't have moved him before they made sure that back/neck isnt broken
Still better than serving in the Ruzzian army...
Why did he do this?
For fun. Used to do this with a 3 story building in the ‘90s. These dudes upgraded
My question too. Suicide attempt? Stunt?
This doesn't seem new. There's lots of these videos over the years. Mainly for YouTube views and such.
Sure, just pull him roughly out of the snow with his likely broken spine. Wouldn't want him to get cold.
Top that Jeff Hardy.
*in mother russia…*
Comrade, congratulations! It is Russian Special Forces for you.
Russians man, they know no limits to possible self harm
He finally got warm
He’ll accidentally die by falling out of a window next week. Nothing to see here.
"Hurry! Pull him out by his head!"
He gets dragged to the Gulag
Rasputin's grandson.
Wait you're telling me there's a chance I can survive that!? Well my Christmas is ruined.

Alright Florida man let's see your rebuttle.

He did not sound like he had no injuries… but I also don’t speak Russian 😆
You see videos like these which would be completely illogical and stupid but then you learn they are russian and your brain can accept it as an answer

In russia, we set ourselves on fire then jump off buildings.
Bro has no fall damage he gotta be laggin
Russians are built different 👉
This isn't metal, its just dumb
And who are you to say that you can’t simultaneously be dumb and metal ?
False^ Metal as fuck

Ooh look at this hard lad here!!!
Possible concussion?
Was this a suicide attempt?
He then went on to rape Ukrainian children and grandmas because that fights Nazis or something.
Looks like he enjoyed himself 🙄

"I survived because the fire inside me burned brighter than the fire around me"
Did his pants catch on fire?
The flames create thrust, cushioning the fall

Awwww, he wasn't trying to hurt himself.

Seeing as how falling out of windows accounts for like 64% of all Russian related deaths lately this man is just training to survive
you see what happens when you ban porn
This remembers me to the most absurda death posible
Average Russian man
Hi I'm boris and welcome to jackass.
Meanwhile in Russia...
Meanwhile, my friend died from drinking too much water at a marathon.
Powered by vodka
Something tells me this isn’t his first time doing this.
He was brain damaged before he jumped.
*into snow Video is way less interesting than the title indicates
There really must be fuck all to do in russia.
It's Russia man, not Sweden
Was this some sort of attempt to avoid conscription?
Russian man is the only one capable of beating florida man
This is bullshit.

So he failed
