A 16-year-old boy who set out to impress a girl probably did not accomplish his intended goal. The Siberian teen climbed over the railing and swung from a 23rd floor-balcony ... and ended up falling to the ground, all in an attempt to impress a girl who was in the Novosibirsk apartment with him. Somehow—partially because, authorities say, a parked car he landed on softened the blow—he was conscious when emergency responders arrived, and is expected to survive, the Siberian Times reports.
"He has a bruised abdomen and lung, a tear in his liver and a broken shoulder. The guy was born under a lucky star. He is stable and conscious," an official says, per RT. Authorities say the fall could easily have been fatal. The Daily Star, which calls the teen a "moron lad" and an "idiot," has pictures of his landing spot (above).
