Re: Big Guy Takes Big Fall
Craig Bongelli, 22 year old Canadian athlete from Kitchener in Ontario was crushed by a 360 pound boulder while competing in the Bavarian Strongman Challenge held during the Oktoberfest in 2012. Craig was on the fourth and final boulder in the atlas stones event when the strain of lifting the boulder made him to black out for a few seconds. He fell to the ground with boulder crashing on top of his chest from head high. Incredibly, while this had the potential to kill the man, Craig Bongelli not only survived the crush, he got by with only a few bruises and scratches. Doctors took him in for precautionary tests and x-rays but found only minor injuries and released him 2 hours later. Wow, incredible he didn't get any breaks! |

Re: Big Guy Takes Big Fall
He survived because it didnt land ON him, it grazed him. Atlas stones are dense, concrete balls of "you fuck up, I'll kill you". I've seen a video where the atlas stone did land on someone, he was never the same after it. |
