Should have listened to the good folk here.

Dont believe it, you feel nearly 80 feet, survived with no broken bones(assuming). Went for two months without food, yea right.

Typically hospitals hook you up to an IV when you are in a coma so that the food issue is not really a problem. The falling 80 feet without dieing is the part that gets me. Perhaps he meant to write 25 to 30 feet rather than meters.

i thought he meant he was outside laying on the ground in a coma for two months. he didn't specify.

"I like to backpack through some wooded areas just outside the city which has been known to harbor criminals and delinquents. "

Why would you do that? Are you looking for trouble?

"I planned on staying there for 6 months as there are deer and small mammals to roast over an open fire."

WTF, why would you want to kill, skin and eat animals for six months? Are you ok, mentally?
I could see if you had no choice, but for the sheer enjoyment?

I'm guessing he had no choice. He did say that he lost his job.

And he said he had some broken bones. I agree with Ikemouser about killing animals though. That's not cool.

Back to my origional point, pics or it didn't happen

Or you could read the first post where he said he had broken bones and was in a coma for 2 months not in the woods with no food for 2 months..........

The height is high, but he also didn't say what he fell on, snow, sand, etc. Maybe he played plinko on the tree limbs on the way down?

hehe....that's what I figured. Or that he meant feet not meters.

Aside from the fact that this is a very serious subject (we're all glad to here you are ok Wabbajack), but that is hilarious!

Never any call for rudeness, IMO.

If it's true, it's an amazing story of survival - and in a survival situation, faced with no home, no job, and few prospects, I might kill, skin and eat animals as well. I'd rather be self sufficient then take handouts, personally.

If the story is not true, it hurts me nothing to give the poster my well-wishes anyway.

So, OP, I am glad you survived. Best wishes to all.

There is nothing wrong with accepting help when you need it, everyone needs it at some point in their lifespan, especially if you have been a productive member of society up to that point.
