Lights! Camera! Compound Fracture with Soft Tissue Laceration!

The Internet is a wondrous invention that provides mankind access to two resources: Pornography and Humourous Videos of People Hurting Themselves. Both of these display a severe lack of intelligence in humanity as each show people demeaning themselves voluntarily.

You can't take three whole steps into the Internet without coming face to face with a growing pile of injured teenagers. And it always involves skateboards. Why is it that a mixture of skateboards and video cameras tricks young boys into believing they are wholly capable of impossible acts? I had access to a video camera as a kid, but I never was inclined to give it to a friend and have him document my leaping off a garage to 'grind' something.

Now that I think about it, I have one friend who injured himself whilst riding in a shopping kart, and another who performed a flying knee kick to the chest of a willing 'pal'. In both instances, cameras were involved.

Anyway, this drawing is a tribute to those people. For anyone who ever seriously considered car-surfing, building a ramp out of scrap wood, or leaping from a rooftop just because their friends claimed they had 'worked out all the kinks'.
