I found some funny videos of people getting owned by exercise balls on Youtube that I thought I would share on my blog. The best one is the first one that I'm sharing where the kid gets hit in the head and falls back down a set of stairs. The next two are about younger kids getting pwned by an exercise ball, but they're still quite funny too. Enjoy.

2. Kid bounces ball of wall into head (kindy of fake looking, but not too bad):
3.Little kid runs into ball held by adult and pwned:

Video: Jake Brown's Road to Recovery
We all remember what happened to Jake Brown on August 2nd at the X games, in fact, it's impossibly hard to forget. He fell over 4 stories to the flat bottom of a ramp... and survived. It was the car crash that you couldn't tear your eyes from. Mat Hoffman fell from that height and was in and out of a coma for 3 days.
Jake Brown walked away.
So it's almost half a year later and Jake is still recovering. I'm thinking that if he had any of his 9 lives left before this fall they're all gone now. Watch this video to see the events, how he survived, and how he's doing today.

How to: Fall Four Stories
How to: Fall Four Stories (Like Pro Sk8er Jake Brown)
Just in case you somehow ever find yourself doing Kevin Robinson, Matt Hoffman, or Morgan Wade sized airs there is an interesting article I found on Wired on How to Survive a 4 Story fall.
1. Don't panic. As Brown says, "Gravity does what gravity does, you know?"
2. Pick a good landing spot. Trained BASE jumpers and skydivers can survive free falls of 100 feet, if they hit mud or a slope. If you're falling from less than 100 feet, you can aim for water (any higher and surface tension makes hitting water feel like slamming into concrete).
3. Spread the impact. Brown turned in midair and absorbed the impact with his feet, then rolled across his back. Such a maneuver is the best way to turn vertical momentum horizontal.
4. Be tough as nails, lucky, or Australian. From a height of 50 feet, you quickly accelerate to 30 miles per hour — so fast, as one expert puts it, you're lucky if your internal organs stay in place on impact.
And, of course, if you are doing airs that big you should enter next year's X-Games Big Air contest and win some cash... which you should then promptly split with me for helping you out so much.
You're welcome.
