No idea. He could well have broken his neck, or a bad concussion.

Hmm, apparently the video is a few years old.

TL;DR: He didn't die. Broke a few bones and went to the shop next day to explain to owner about incident.

now as a result of that incident did he try to sue the owner for installing the frame to hold a 250 lbs?

Whoever installed it deserves a lot of credit. It was much more solid than I would have thought.

At least you TOOK physics. Either he didn't, or he skipped class...

The current zeitgeist doesn't exactly encourage people to value scientific expertise; it's a lefty hoax, doncha know, and my ignorance is every bit as good as your knowledge. Probably better. Why should this poor dope be any different and have to swim upstream? At least he had the courage of his stupid convictions.
