apparently off a garage around Walker/Travis.

anyone over that way confirm?

OG Tine board would already have splat pictures up.

T&P

From 7th floor of Esperson at Walker & Travis. The tarp is gone now and its nasty.

body landed on the 3rd car back in the bottom left.

I was half kidding.....

Huh? Looks like he landed right in the middle of the street...

Guess he got a good bounce

check out the hood on the driver side of the car third up from the bottom left. That dark looking area is where the body first made impact or there would have been splatter outside of that tarp.

How do they typically clean this up? With a shovel?

That is a hell of a roll/bounce. I thought he just took a running leap and made it out to the second lane. Why you going to f up somebody else's ride with your problems?

Does State Farm have that covered?

Sounds like a new mayhem commercial to me...

I was walking down main and saw the aftermath...so sad.

It's been a long time since I've taken a physics class, but even jumping off of a 10 story garage, you couldn't clear the 30 or so feet from the building, across the sidewalk and the first lane of traffic, could you?

So are you saying that town car was driving by at the time and the guy landed on the hood? It's impossible for it to have been parked there and him land on it and up that far into the street with no other blood trail. I'm not sure you are seeing any dent from the fall in that car.

Shout out to H-I.

He hit the car

A mere flesh wound......

Oh my! If I was sitting in that car when the body landed on the hood, I wouldn't be able to sleep for months. Definitely would have been a couple "Holy ****s" being said.

That is one hell of a jump however they did it. I've parked in the garage and from the top I don't think there's any way to get a running start. It's 14 stories tall.

If they jumped from a floor other than the top there's cables about 4 feet up and then maybe another 4 feet of open space before concrete so that's a little window to jump through.

Totally cleared the sidewalk and landed on the outer half of that car and did a solid roll or bounce another lane over.

I don't think this was some homeless person and someone that had some pretty good athletic ability. Won't read about it anywhere as the media doesn't cover suicides in almost all instances.

Had a neighbor in Fort Worth do the same thing and never could find anything online about it.

So what I'm hearing is the guy didn't jump. He fell. He is one of my cooks friends that works down there. And yes I'm one of the chefs.

If true, what a crazy way to go.

how the f do you fall that far out? or at all?

He only "fell" if he owed some guy some money or was tempting fate anyway. There is now way to accidentally fall out of that garage. There are tension cables that run on every exterior wall a good three to four feet from the ground up on every floor.

If there was a way to "accidentally" fall cars would be able to drive right off a floor and garages simply aren't designed like that.
