    Pesky kids, finding ways to have fun that do not conform to our molly coddled health and safety mad values. They should be shot...from a huuugee cannon, out into the middle of the Liffey, at a bouncy castle moored like a barge. Now that would be fun.. where could you get a cannon like that?

    That "James Wall" man in the comments seems like he would be rightly at home on boards.

    James Wall, you are nothing but a drunk and a bum just like your daddy, and it will be a cold day in hell before I ever forgive you:D

    absolutely brilliant! Fair balls to them... Kids with a bita get up and go, courage and a sense of adventure.. Maybe they should stay at home and watch TV... Gawd if they keep doing stuff like this they might get wet, catch a cold or even get hurt...

    "The only limit, is the one you set yourself." :D

    Sometimes you need to do dangerous things to make you feel alive, fair play to the lads.

    That video of the kid splitting his head is fake ... has to be .. as if they'd let someone film in the ER room

    Perhaps the dive is real but the ER part - no way .... no way ..

    The comments on you tube are quite abusive towards these kids.

    Is it not just a bunch of youths having a larf?

    Provided they have no recourse to sue the restaurant, the council or me.. let them at it

    How the hell does someone survive that. Gruesome.
    its actualy a lot more common than think,as a....um..gore QC technician,have seen a lot of videos of injuries like his,and in very poor hospitals where the nurses prefer to spend more time whipping their mobile phones out to record the poor buggers whilst theyre writhing around in agony,instead of sorting them out with painkillers,sedatives, intubation and ventilation, surgery et al.
    it is surviveable providing they get given help straight away,have the wounds cleaned with decent stuff to avoid bacterias getting in,their brain and carotid artery are still intact,they will need a ****lot of surgery though and it woud be awful to imagine that in somewhere like america where they have to pay excessively for health services or a country which has awful health care.

    Ahh Youtube comments



    Can't the comments just be about how stupid or crazy the people in the video are? Nope, not a chance.

    There are a couple of trolls working hard on that video

    Youtube is pretty limited in terms of reporting abusive comments/ posts in fact it doesn't seem to be possible.

    The Liffey isn't a particularly dirty river, granted the water isn't quite drinking quality but its not the open sewer some here are making it out to be.

    I've never seen people jump into the Liffey from that building before and I wouldn't have thought it a great spot seeing as it is so far back from the edge of the river. I've seen people jump from the roof of the dockland development authority building beside the O'Casey bridge before which is right up on the edge, which I think is a bit safer.

    Guy dives off a wall into the sea, but he slips just as he's about to jump and falls head first into a bit of concrete below.

    Head lands on the corner of the concrete and he falls into the water unconscious.

    Scene cuts to him in hospital, his face is literally split in half while he's still alive. Not just a cut down his face, I mean actually split in half and lying there gaping open. Doctor has to put his hands on both sides of the face and push them together to make it even look like a face again.

    The water is red, cause obviously when you split your face in half you bleed quite a bit.

    Apparently he died a few days later.

    Posting racist comments on a few videos that are posted here.

    Exactly. They're the worst kind. Young lads never did anything stupid in my day. I blame the video games and the trailer for that superman film.
