Hey, Stupid!
A young man who told friends he wanted to jump from a moving car to earn a tattoo leapt from a Subaru at 40 mph Monday afternoon and died almost instantly.
PS, here is your tattoo

Hey, Stupid!
The sad part is that now his parents have to live with the fact that their child would commit such an unthinking act when they had probably spent their lives teaching him to be an intelligent member of the human race. sk

Hey, Stupid!
Sounds like another product of the fabled Jefferson County, CO School District.
Oh wait. I'm a product of the Jefferson County, CO School District.
DOH!
What a tool. I highly doubt he was schizophrenic; one of his other personalities would have told him how stupid it would be to do that. Man, didn't this kid take elementary physics, or at the very least crash his bike when he was a kid? What did he think it would feel like?? The momentum of your head hitting the pavement at 40mph is the rough equivalent of falling 5 stories and landing on your head.
Didn't think of that, though, did he?
I have always wanted somedody to hit me in the head with a 5-iron as hard as they can. I want to know what it feels like.

Hey, Stupid!
I'll agree with ya velvet. Schizophrenia doesn't mean that you are a stupid idiot wanting to jump from a car. Perhaps those who think otherwise should see the movie "A Beautiful Mind'.

Hey, Stupid!
Years ago I went down on a TT track doing over 70. Tore up a brand new BSA Gold Star. I was wearing full leathers and a helmet and though I tumbled over 20 yards the only damage to me was a small cut on my chin. It knocked the breath out of me and I didn't think I was ever going to catch my breath.

Man, I've gone off of a lot of moving vehicles: Crashed bikes, boards, choppers, even perfectly good airplanes... But jumping out of a moving car? I personally think that there is something seriously wrong in that city!

Hey, Stupid!
sounds like another case of somebody wanting to belong. Its sad that we don't teach our kids that they do belong, to the human race. Someday we will learn but not until we get most of the money gubbin lawyers out of the business of running and ruining the country. We will get back to the basic's once the rest is gone.
