A Whole New Meaning To "Air Guitar"
I think we have a finalist for the Darwin Awards, here:
The 16-year-old business student, from China, was "hyped up with exhilaration" when he rebounded off the bed and out of the window, coroner Tan Boon Heng told the Straits Times newspaper.
“He was jumping up and down on the bed placed against an open window while imitating a rock guitarist,” Mr Tan said...
...The boys apparently kept the window open because they liked to smoke, even though it was banned by the hostel.
And another tobacco-related death as well.
[Update in the late afternoon]
A wag at Free Republic notes that the pavement was his first, and last, hit.
Jokes aside, condolences to the family and friends.
