Of course this is Wrestling related (Sarcasm), because Jeff always uses a parachute when he does a swanton.
I'm really sad that a child dies. That isn't a good thing. But to blame wrestling because: a) his parents weren't watching him (how did he get on the roof?) OR b) the kid was too stupid to try it from a smaller height (he would have still gotten hurt but he would have lived and learnt his lesson)
I am so sick of "society" blaming everything from video games to heavy metal. Where were his parents? Where is the personal responsibility.
I have watched wrestling for almost 15 years. I love movies, everything from rom com to torture horror, and have done so since I saw "Nightmare on Elm St" when I was 5. And I listen to a wide variety of music, from RnB to Thrash Metal...
I have never done anything like the things that people blame on the aforemention forms of entertainment.
Am I the exception or the Norm?

I know, especially with society blaming video games and music and stuff, but i mean a nine-year old made a parachute without anyone noticing this???

The norm. You don't see NASCAR fans crashing their cars into walls or guardrails because they want to imitate Dale Sr. (this is a really screwed up comparison, but it's all I could think up at the time), so why do people blame wrestling when kids do stupid crap and get hurt or killed. It's sad that the kid died...but chalk it up to the stupid kid being stupid. If you make a makeshift parachute, you should at least have a basic understanding of how a parachute works, instead of jumping off a building and praying that it all works out in the end.

No comment. i don't understand why they blame Video games for the violence. Now they blame WRESTLING for a kid performing a swantom bomb by jeff hardy.

You know who's to blame? the Military and their advertising glorifing parachuting.
DO THEY EVER GO THERE?
Like I said, i'm sorry the kid is dead, Marjin said how did noone notice him making a parachute? or trying to get on the roof?
