Spit himself to death

2008 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

Just heard this story on the radio this morning. Two men were having a spiting contest on the balcony of one man's hotel room, at the 17th floor. Apparently,in an attempt to prove himself the best, one of the man climbed on the railing and hurtled himself forwards as to give his spit more momentum and make it go further. What he failed to do was to brake off from the spit, propelling himself forward over the railing and down 17 floors to his death.
