I heard he died in hospital is that true?

i saw this a while back ... where did u hear that?

[Aero]

Did he open the door? or did the door suddenly open?

[700mb80min]

actually he was trying to hit the kids on the sidewalk with the door but opened it too soon . dead ? i hope not ....hospital for 6 mths i do hope for punishment.

[UrbanPoet]

altho unfortunate that anyone gets hurt... this guy got what was coming to him. He was trying to make an "internet funny video" of him opening a car door while a kid was riding his bike next to it... he ended up fallout out and getting his head hit by a car traveling at high speeds.

[mustanglover76]

saw this a while back also...haven't heard any update on this...

You are right, it serves him right, he paid the price with his life.

Also, even though I cant find any link on the net about him, with a car going 30mph and getting hit head on (and it was dead on too), there is no way he would have lived. Even with it going 10mph, he would be toast.

He should know better, not to pick on small kids. And to do it in a moving car? Not the brightest thing to do. If he really want to pick on the kids, why not stop the vehicle get out and do it on foot? Whats he afraid of? The kids are going to chase him down on their bikes? :lol:

I don't know if it is enough to kill him, but he will be hurtin' for a while for sure.

[MrKat]

I mean I dont mean to sound mean or anything, but this is still so f'in hilarious. The kid got what he deserved :cheesygri Watching it in slo-mo :lol:

Harsh price and sad to see him lose his life, but...geez....

How did you know he died?!? We need PROOF!!

[ch1zo]

Ooouuuccccchhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!

[Rometiklan]

I really can't see any way that guy could have survived. The impact from a car going at that speed is enough to cause major damage to another car, let alone a skull. If by some miracle the guy did survive, his skull would have been shattered. Who knows what happened after the guy was hit? Did he fall underneath the tire and the car run over him over as well? Just really a sad sad story, and a wasted life.

[15-20_God]

karma can be quick and painful sometimes.

[LuckyChef]

Saw this vid a while back as well. Hope he didn't die because everyday he would have to live with the injuries which will remind him of what a stupid prank he tried to pull on some kid.

[Bordello]

I'd be shocked if he lived through that. Looks like he could have gone under the car too.

That'll teach them for driving around and video taping their little antics. Go karma.

[UrbanPoet]

If he did survive i think he would be a vegtable or at least suffer serious brain impairment. altho quite possible, the chances are extremely slim.

theres also that physics law...
if your car is traveling 30kmphr and you jump out, you will also be traveling 30 kmphr... assuming the other car was traveling @ the speed limit on a small street, i bet you that other car was going at least 30 kmphr.

when you put the two together, his head must have been jelly.

[fakishan]

i thought the other car was parked :confused:

he would of lived.

[CanadaBoy]

Serves him right.

[EH100501AC]

i thought the other car was parked :confused:

he would of lived.

I thought the car was parked too lol..Isn't it? :idea:

[vladislav]

karma can be quick and painful sometimes.

but always fair, perfect law.

[Spare-Flair]

Other car was parked. Force = mass x acceleration. It's different when a person hits a parked car versus a moving car hitting a parked person. He could have survived. If it was a modern car, a softer bumper might have saved him. That car looked old, I hope it wasn't a steel bumper.

But that kid was trying to swat kids off their bikes. He gets what he deserves.

[poppa]

Youtube is blocked here, but if this is the video of some punk teen trying to smack a kid while the car is moving and he misses the kid and falls onto an oncoming car - HE SURVIVED.

It was either on break.com or some other message board, the guy who posted either was a friend or himself, but he spent a week or two in the hospital.

I knew it! Even if he spent only 2 weeks in hospital, he'd still be hurtin' for a while after that! Imagine the kind of lecture he got from his parents lol, sucker.

[Ben31]

Yeah..video has been out for awhile....following quote from another forum


The kid (name is Mullet) was in the hospital for 30 days. He had extensive facial repairs and did NOT die. He said he knew the kid on the bike and was just messing around.

[vee_one]

that suckksssss...

[PSiBeR]

What the hell is this guy trying to do anyways? hop out and land on the red shirt kid riding the bike?

Anyways serve this guy right for pulling this kinda gay sh1t.

[trixR4kids]

dam... i hope that changed his life

[Rometiklan]

dam... i hope that changed his life

He probably has to drink his steak through a straw now.

HEre's what I could find about the idiot:

"In this case, "Mullet" (as his friends call him), survived after a month in the hospital. When this video was actually new, there was a forum up where he came on to answer any questions about the accident... but when the thread was avalanched with slams towards Mullet for being such a ing dumbass, they eventually closed it.

There is still this thread where a moderator had the chance to talk to the kid that taped the whole thing.... you can find it here: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/sho...16&page=1&pp=25"

"Here are some of the highlights from the chat logs with the one guy who filmed the video:
A photo of the kid who hit the car with his face. Matt Lake a.k.a. (Mullet).

These chat transcripts are taken from another forum.

UPDATE: Paul, the video's cinematographer has left his AIM I.D. open for any questions you guys have. Pv8man999 is his address.

I contacted him, he couldn't really talk to me on AIM since he is being bombarded with IMs but he did send me a log of a previous conversation to answer any questions I might have.

Dear somethingawful forum posters
I am glad that the truth about the clip has been revealed.
As some of you may guess, I am the one who filmed the clip.
and yes I have tons of proof to back it up, such as the original full quality clip, and pictures and videos of Matt Lake (mullet). Also have pictures of mullet in the hospital which I will get from him problably within the next day or so.

I wasn't able to post on here because I didn't have an account until now.
Thank you so much for the account nailPuppy and also for chatting with me and posting the real info on here.
Sincerly

As some of you may know. There has been a tragic accident with Matt Lake (Mullet). Matt Lakes did not do it for the video, it was just a small prank gone horrably wrong. No one put him up to it, he did it on his own. But the good news is that he is recovering and is doing great.

pv8man999: I still have the original clip
pv8man999: full DV quality, non-rendered. also footage of mullet.
antipop59: Is the one on the net edited in any way?
pv8man999: no
pv8man999: I serisouly thought he was dead
antipop59: you must have been traumatized
pv8man999: I got so scared
pv8man999: yes
pv8man999: very
pv8man999: to this day me and my friends don't like to talk about it
antipop59: were you guys smoking weed? Someone thought they spotted a cigarette or a joint in the passenger's hand I think
pv8man999: cigg
pv8man999: when I came up to him
pv8man999: he was still breathing
antipop59: was he just mangled?
pv8man999: but imagine every bone from your nose down broke
pv8man999: and 5 missing whole teeth on the street
pv8man999: no blood on the teeth
pv8man999: they ripped clean out
pv8man999: he was not conscious
pv8man999: so I had to keep him on his side so he wouldn't choke
pv8man999: the ****ing ambulance took 30 minutes to get there and the hospital wasn't far either
antipop59: what about the bike kid/kids? One of them looked like he got a first-hand look at the impact
pv8man999: yeah he was pretty freaked out
pv8man999: also
pv8man999: yes
pv8man999: this really wasn't meant to happen

pv8man999: and for the rest of the people that say things like .."I'm glad hes dead he deserved what he got"...with out any facts...those people can go to hell

I don't know why but that part is really funny to me. Great to get more details and a bit of background story on this whole thing.

[M@rk]

Thanks for the info. I was beginning to think how insensitive the camera guy was to post the video of his dead friend.

[travelmate]

There's a photo of Matt Lake (aka Mullet) on the site link you just gave... it's under "The Crew" (the PV8 site).

Kid looks like a total dweeb/nerd/geek crossover :lol:
