We have a comon saying in Brazil when something is so bad, it can't get any worse: "Do chão não passa" which mans something like "It doesn't go trough the floor" He actually managed to go a bit too deep... |

Looks like a bag lock of some sort on the main with reserve entanglement. Possibly the best burn in video out there. Strong camera work.

He kind of reminds me of Empire State Building Suicide Lady from the 1930s (?) except his face doesn't so much as say "I'm sleeping here" as "I'm dead here". Nice that the cameraguy so enthusiastically ran up to the corpse for a close-up when most other human beings wouldn't have |
