This man stood on an 18 inch wide table during the home run derby and reached down to catch a homerun when his momentum carried him to the pool deck 20 ft below. A brother and a few other friends managed to catch his leg and an arm to pull him up.

Fortunately this idiot who valiantly tried to accidentally kill himself had a few family and friends around to save his life thus keeping the gene pool weak until his next episode.

By the way this happened just a few days after Shannon Stone died after falling 20 ft at a Texas Rangers Baseball game Thursday just a few days earlier.

I'm willing to accept this one given the blatant disregard for his own safety that I saw on the news clips about this dolt. And to top it off I saw him interviewed on the news this morning where he admitted it was extremely stupid considering the recent unfortunate accident involving Shannon Stone. This guy definitely should have known better. Thanks, Bob!
