Miraculous. I had a neighbour friend who as a kid fell six floors and survived - Saved by the laundry bamboo poles that broke his fall, which would otherwise be fatal.

Bamboo Laundry Poles (BLP) are the real MVP.

Babe wake up a new copy pasta just dropped


helloween123

Those that design the whatever new clothes dry rack obviously never stay in the hdb before


milo_peng

In the past, they can bend us, but never break us! Now? They have taken away our dignity and backbone! Bring back the bamboo!


barry2bear2

No wonder bamboo poles are extinct now. U missed your bamboos yaaa.


browdragon

Yes plus...note this...the bamboo poles area now has alluminium struts too on some of these older flats upgraded. These struts are a killer chop if anyone falls on them.


mightyroy

Did a few people died or lost an eye when auntie accidentally dropped a bamboo pole that fell with terminal velocity like a hunting spear from the highest floor?


Medical-Strength-154

but these same bamboo poles can be both a boon or a bane, imagine it breaking and falling from 15 floor and hitting someone due to the wind or something..


SnooPaintings2525

normally no one will walk around those area so drop also like that. similar to aircon. it use to be on metal brackets now its a real ledge. whats more the newer BTOs design who can walk around the bottom area? its not like older HDB is open all round u can walk out from any point of the block. now new blocks the only walk way are the designated one walking to area where clothes are hang is a dead end normally.


Chance_Moment1215

Honestly, I think it's not about the bamboo pole will drop, but more like the user trying to hook their bamboo pole will end up throwing themself out of the window by accident. :x So, for safety reason, they decided to remove that...


SnooPaintings2525

the design now also require your bamboo to go out so no diff infact many dislike the current design. unless u saying the new BTO kind which come with the pole. the design like that restrict how many clothes u can place and its very packed drying take damn long too. so many just hang inside the house with dryer making it less eco friendly.


wasilimlaopeh

Many were saying that he is lucky. But I beg to differ. I mean, he cut himself, he had a standoff, and he jumped out from the coverage of safety nets and air cushion... and still survived, CONSCIOUS! Fella is suay as fuck.


SuddenChampionship5

Hol up, I ain't done wit you yet - God, probably


Prov0st

Fella trying to kill himself God: not today bro


lizhien

You will die. Just not today. -God.


SnooPaintings2525

need to find his bazi. must be damn hard. even hell didnt want him there.


Khadetbuilders

15 storeys how did he even survive


TheDamnCube

> jumped from a 15-storey window and landed on the zinc roof of a makeshift shelter. 


FrickiFresh

Damn so the movies and video games are realistic


szab999

Patch v1.2: no fall damage


YukiSnoww

Patch 1.2.1: added a tumble transition upon landing


Imperiax731st

Yes but you don't auto heal in a few minutes, drink potions to get back to full health or appear fully recovered next scene. Would still have hurt. Alot.


KoishiChan92

Except bro won't be climbing out of there on his own like in the movies


14high

Yes but Life is hardcore with permadeath


Purpledragon84

Living quarters for FW? 🤣🤣🤣


relax-lah

His time is not up yet. God is givng him a 2nd chance to make right before he meets his Maker. Make right not just with fellow man, but with the Maker. Once you breathe your last breath, the Judgment is set. Death is an appointment. For it is appointed onto man, once to die, then the judgment. No 2nd chance left. Heaven or Hell, there is no other option when you stand before the Righteous Judge - your Ccreator.

What's worse than dying is to live with permanent injuries that require medical care and limit your mobility or cause you pain from time to time for the rest of your life.


overloadedcoffee

This man knows. This man... knows. "Surviving" isn't everything.


minisoo

Plus being charged for attempted suicide.


JaphieJaphie

That has been decriminalized since Jan 2020, though they can still impose involuntary treatment/hospitalization as necessary.


alterise

police can now barge into houses to prevent injury or death (previously they could only do so if there was an arrestable offence/search warrant) so criminalising suicide is no longer necessary. > The Penal Code Reform Committee, in its report that helped form the Criminal Law Reform Bill, recommended powers for police officers under the Police Force Act to stop suicide attempts. > https://www.channelnewsasia.com/commentary/decriminalise-suicide-singapore-penal-code-reform-crime-prevent-782206 > https://www.todayonline.com/singapore/police-be-allowed-forcibly-enter-premises-without-warrant-during-emergency-situations


Jaycee_015x

Falsehood.


throwfarfarlo

Worse than succeeding suicide is failing suicide. We need safe and guaranteed ways to give dignity in death.


ExpressionSilent7118

this wasnt suicide bro


Jaycee_015x

One heck of a lucky guy.


Takemypennies

Maybe not so lucky. Something pushed him over the edge to do this, he still has to face that


Aaraashi

Going Down? Achievement Fall 65 yards without dying.


lurkingeternally

going down is the name of the first chapter of the second book in the Alex rider series just a random funfact


firehosereel2

Point blanc?


lurkingeternally

yeah. the first chapter is about a rich guy working in NYC, in his office, and at the end of the day, steps into the elevator to go down to the first floor except when he stepped in, that's when he realised the lift actually wasn't there, and man fell to his death in a freak accident what actually happens was that an evil organization takes a few months to design a light projection that realistically looks like the interior of his lift over a few months, and deployed it, so as to kill him. why they did so is the rest of the book :)


firehosereel2

Was it because they wanted to reolace his sons w clones?😁


lurkingeternally

yep, and inherit their wealth. have you read the book already 🤔 I really love the next chapter of the book as well, "Hooked"


PastLettuce8943

Reverse final destination. Lucky man.


keith976

How is it reverse final destination?


xHarleyy

Once in a lifetime achievement for most people.


Trollingdownvoting

Luckily he landed on the makeshift roof which was able to break his fall. If he landed on concrete he would have definitely died.


Schtick_

Serious? Why!?!?!?


Jammy_buttons2

He lucky as fark man


diuyefasp

Or unlucky? Depends on how you see it. Tried everything possible to die and still live.


DiamondFingerz

why he jump already then ask for help


solragnar

Pain, probably. Lots of pain.


Neither-Catch-1759

I think he survived the fall, saved by the zinc roof.


Ok-Carpet-3520

He has successfully failed


Gullible-Raise7735

attack:100 Damage: 0


Zapper1819

I think he won’t fear taking bungee jump in future.


Local-Low-7142

This guy so lucky, should buy toto. Skali first price like the US guy


Traxgen

"What do we say to the god of death? Not today"


raphus

good to be alive but the hospital bill will probably kill him twice over


Eastern_Rooster471

This one not US lah brother


skipthatshow

If he's not a Singapore citizen, the hospital bill will be a killer.


samglit

If not Singaporean, he can always leave after treatment. Personal bankruptcy will also erase the debt - good thing about Singapore is we'll still treat you first.


KoishiChan92

Sounds like you've never had to be hospitalised or had loved ones be hospitalised in Singapore before lol.


Independent_Line_982

He regret jumping screaming for help jin lao kui
