Life, my dear peeps, works in mysterious ways. Before you judge, I’m not here to preach but if you’re one of the many people who has given up on luck, well…let’s just say you might wanna reconsider by the end of this.
Having said that, the Internet works in a peculiar way, crushing our faith more often than usual. But today is a different day. Today is all about new chances and I’m going to tell you how!
According to a new video that has emerged online, a thrill-seeker and adventure junkie in Stockholm, Sweden decided to jump from a 246ft tall, 24-storey building. And he did!
Sounds dangerous but harmless right?
Umm, you’ll be damned because that’s not the news.
As fate would have it, the parachute never deployed but the man miraculously survived the deadly fall with only injuries!
The incident took place on Kungsholmen, one of the islands that make up the Swedish capital, at around midday on Saturday. Reportedly, the unnamed man was taken to a hospital, where he was treated for serious, but not life-threatening, injuries.
The barely 10-second jump was filmed by a friend who saw the base jumper plunge to the ground.
I know what you’re thinking but no, it is not illegal. In fact, the Stockholm police told the newspapers that it is not felonious if done with proper permission. A friend of the man carried out a base jump shortly after, which was successful and saw him land safely nearby, as reported by The Sun.
