What would you say is the highest height you can jump from and land on concrete without sustaining serious injury (e.g. breaking your legs)?
25 May 2005, 18:35 UTC#2
Surely it depends on how you land and stuff?! Image file not present in the recovered backup

If you land well - bending your knees and rolling.
25 May 2005, 18:42 UTC#6
ask scum they did a 30ft jump
25 May 2005, 18:44 UTC#7
also depends on your wieght and hieght
25 May 2005, 19:05 UTC#8
hmm, u can break your leg from a not so high fall if you land like a ton of bricks.
25 May 2005, 19:32 UTC#9
its all about how you land homie.

watch some parkour

If you jump straight down the blow is much harder... but if you jump far some of the downforce will be generated on forward movement and it will make the landing more soft... Tho. It takes big balls to do long jumps from high heights...
and yes it's very much about landing it right... and the older you get the bigger the risk of brakeing/busting something... and it also depends on your genes... so it depends on lots of things... but mostly on your landing...

jump and land with straight legs while locking your knees..
nothing will go wrong then

26 May 2005, 03:36 UTC#15
bend your knees and roll is always best

Well I did a 15 ft jump onto concrete thinking I could do it easily without sustaining any injury without doing the parkour roll landing. How wrong I was. I simply landed onto the concrete and bent my legs as you would do in a normal jump, and had to go to the hospital later that day. I was on crutches for 2 weeks, and that was BAD pain im telling you. You guys say 30ft, but even with the parkour roll landing, I know from personal experience that that is way to high not to come out with an injury, or maybe thats just me but I would say max 20ft if that.

I once did a 20 ft (maybe not sure) jump but that was only onto grass. whacked my head on the ground real hard though coz I landed wrong. ouch.

Well I heard if you jump whilst drunk your alot less likely to hurt yourself because you roll with it and dont tense all you muscles up or some shit?
