This is a picture of him a couple of days after his Superman stunt.
I have a side view of him as well, where you can see how swollen his forehead was, but can't find it.

Damn, i did the same type thing, jumping off the side of a full size truck. I was trying to flip but landed right on my head. Thankfully, i don't think any serious damage resulted. I feel sorry for him, seems like little boys think we're invincable until we really **** ourselves up.

LOL...it didnt' stop him until about four years ago. He's broken five bones, all by the age of ten. That's not including sprain, bumps, bruises(some pretty nasty ones too) scrapes, etc. The final wake up call for him was when he went rollerblading without safety gear. He did the splits, scraped the inside of his knee, came home and slapped a bandaid on it. Two days later his knee was twice the size. I take him in, knowing it's an infection. They xray it, they say yes, here are some antibiotics BUT we also saw this on the xray.
They found a three inch cyst inside the tibia (lower leg bone) and had to operate on it a few months later. They cut him open, cut the bone open, scraped it out, packed it with cadaver bone chips and patched him back up. He had a 50/50 chance of breaking that leg just by walking on it BEFORE the operation. No running, jumping, etc for an 11 year old boy is HELL on him and his mother. Wheel chair for five weeks. Limited activity for another year. That's when he gained weight and lost his daredevil attitude. Despite him scaring me all the time, I miss that about him. His no fear.

I'm hoping so. I think it'll be best for him for the way he is now. Things may change in the next few years.....so we'll see. He wants to be a marine half the time.

Dan got two stitches when he was two, then four at age four (the nose)...I worried the whole time he was six!! He did get those six stitches but that was just last October.
I hate going to the ER or urgent care. They recognize me when I go in.......

Why do people want to be superman? He was dumb enough to get himself paralyzed and is now dead. No one should want to be a loser like that. **** Reeves.
