A human body falls 16 ft in the first second, 64 by the 2nd and 144 by the 3rd second. My best guess is that jump was between 60 and 80 ft. Very survivable height. These dickheads hit bottom. ****

I don't see how that can be fatal as it didn't look like that much of a drop. Who knows...

[chrisnsal]

looked like shit to me, pre-planned for the internet, nobody could die from that height , the impact was not great enough and they went in feet first, also the camera was cut off on both occaisions just before they obviously ran out of breath, FAKE ALL THE WAY IN MY OPINION !

Exaxtly what i thought after watching it im not convinced they even died,like somebody else said the first guy was swimming just fine when he surfaced and second guy didnt seem in any trouble,neither were flailing or sunk so im just not sure?

ATTENTION: THEY ARE BOTH VERY DEAD. lovelylucinda chrisnsal Spiffyfable 1970johnnyhunter

Video of them being fished out. The 1st guys face is shown briefly before being censored. Clearly dead, his face and neck are clearly an ashy blue color.

Two Russian Guys Jump Into Volga River from Bridge, Both Die
Posted on June 7, 2013 by Vincit Omnia Veritas

This video is from a Russian TV. A group of youths frolicked on a bridge across the Volga River in the city of Saratov and one decided to jump. He surfaced and swam toward the riverbank, but after a few seconds froze up and became unresponsive. His friends on the bridge realized that he was in trouble so one decided to jump after him. But his jump went wrong as well and as soon as he surfaced, he was unresponsive.

The youths called the emergency and river rescue teams were sent in to recover the boys. One they found right away and handed him over to the medics who tried to resuscitate him but to no avail. The other one took a while to find and as the first one, could not be revived. Two senseless deaths in one day.

The plunge from the bridge to the river was only 25 meters (82 feet) which is rather high, but not all that high. I’ve seen people easily handling higher drops to water. These guys must have both screwed up on the landing. Maybe they landed flat and the impact knocked the wind out of them and if you can’t breathe properly in water, you’re screwed. Another possibility is that the kinetic energy of their fall forced water into their body orifices, resulting in fast drowning.

*Sorry about the link. I guess it is not allowed. But if you Google it, the video comes up.

You can see how they land in that water, not pin straight. The 2nd guy went in and turned as he hit the water. Someone else commented that them being smokers most likely didn't help either, not able to adequately hold their breath and surface.

I snorted. Fucking stupid.

[chewbacca]

Yeah Im thinking they hit rock bottom pardon the pun...

[galaxia]

there's a special way to dive from high up, gotta make your body into a spear shape and point your feet down with arms to side. not sure if they would make much difference from that height but it would certainly reduced the amount of impact because you pierce the surface of the water instead of smashing on top of it

[trefakabat]

hypothermia? the weather was hot, but the river is too cold, and their body shocked by fast the temperature change, maybe they didn't die instantly, just blacked out because of the shock, and drowned.
