Wow, that must be the worst feeling when you realize things have failed. Glad he's alright!

I'm glad he's ok but I hate to see his hospital bill.

 

[santeana]

Woulda been cooler if he captured it with google glass. lol Glad he's ok though

Suppose you couldnt be suprised, very lucky man though

and here in the U.S., even with Health Insurance, he would have to file bankruptcy and his life would be over because you can't break a nail without it costing you everything you own, by going to a hospital.

the accident happened in Italy - I would be surprised if for this kind of emergency treatment he'd get any bill at all. Anyway, I also find it interesting that his very concerned friend kept filming everything including his arrival on the scene. Weird.

So people intentionally put themselves in harm's way and get injured, and then that drives up the demand for medical services, which drives up prices. Thanks.
