Post Teen survives 20-storey jump
From correspondents in Hong Kong
February 5, 2004

A 15-year-old boy miraculously survived after leaping 20 storeys to escape taunts by his older brother for losing in a computer game.

The boy was taken to hospital pale but unscathed after landing on the awning of a shop on the ground floor of the Kowloon district residential block where he lives, Sing Tao newspaper reported today.

A fire brigade spokesman described the incident as a "miracle and lucky escape".

The former British colony is a dense urban city where most of its seven million inhabitants live in high-rise blocks.

you guys should watch a show called "worse case scenario" the whole show is absed around teaching you how to survive stuff like that.

How to jump from one building to another
How to survive in the desert
how to survive your car rolling over
how to survive if your on a motorbike and a moving truck blocks the road

etc etc its absolutely hilarious

lol yeah ive seen it b4...i havent seen it on lately though..yeah but the world is getting pretty messed up now. ppl killing ppl for a stupid reasons. Ive heard of someone being shot because they stepped on someone elses shoes. I mean i dont want ne one stepping on my shoes or ne thing but i wont resolve in violance. The most i would go to is yelling at them but only if they are doing it on purpose.
