This guy did not, it is about half way through the movie.

A short walkabout could have/would have prevented this from happening.

This has been a safety minute brought to you by YotaTech, we now return you to your scheduled reading and posting.

X2, it's old and only a moron crests a hill without checking to see what's on the other side.

It would be as dumb as nailing a chick ya didn't really know.. very dangerous.

I'm more country than they are so you'd really like to hear me talk lol; there are some places here in Arkansas that are several hundred vertical feet down if you weren't aware of what's there the "Hold my beer n' watch this" mistake could be your last!

WOW. that's crazy! the video is funny though, good thing no one was hurt. Sucks for that guy. Isn't it amazing though, when your buddy says,"Yeah you'll make it or try that one!!!" Should've walked it first.
