wow... he must have landed on them. I know in a 2 story fall, you have a 50/50 chance.
I'm going to guess that your chances of surviving a 4-story fall is about 10%. in college a girl jumped out of a 6th story window my last year. she survived the landing and laid there for like an hour before she was found and taken to the hospital where she died.
Yeah, the little girl only broke her arm so they must have used the little boy as a cushion. I like how this quote reads like it was attributed to the hospital director:
"I feel that once he recovers and understands what he has done he should commit suicide."
