Nice title... but I gotta ask, why is it that every video that showcases personal stupidity have to have a slo-mo replay?

Someone needs to teach those boys about the lever and fulcrum. Then they could kill each other with boulders 5x the size!

Death and maiming always gets an upvote... at least when directly linked to stupidity.

Kind of not cool for his friends to upload the video after it killed the camera man. RIP.

I want to see an after shot... Where are the broken bones?

Does anyone know the after-story for this video? I'd wager hospital, multiple broken bones, and physical therapy to boot.

Haha , boulders are cool, we use to do stuff like this all the time when I was a kid, although none of us were stupid enough to stand below..

why is it that every video that showcases personal stupidity have to have a slo-mo replay?" Everybody knows that stupidity at 1 tenths speed is that much more funny!

@Raven: slowmo is often abused, but here it serves the noble purpose that otherwise that "rock splits and hits the sucker" would have been unnoticed, too confused.

That boulder barely ripped out 1/3rd of that trees girth, I doubt it could hurt a hardy human. Even more satisfying would have been the crunch of the tree falling as a finale.

Agreed with deathcow, I don't think that boulder could kill person necessarily... however, could it crunch up some foot bones pretty good, or break a tibia if it struck a person just so? that I think it very easily could.

Video needs closure. Guessing what happened in the aftermath is just not interesting to me.

Well, that was entirely unfulfilling. I hate seeing dumb people almost kill other dumb people, I hate that they probably think this was still cool. I hate that there was indeed no closure as to, well, what actually happened. I hate the ridiculous use of slo-mo, the bad camera work, the lack of noting whether there was an actual purpose to rolling the rocks, or whether they were just doing it for shits and giggles.

Buh.
