This is really funny.. unless you're him...

[SINGAPORE] - A teenage guitarist got so carried away while bouncing up and down on his bed mimicking a rock star that he catapulted out of a third-floor window to his death, a Singapore newspaper reported yesterday.

The only thing that would make that kind of death cooler is if it was made into a music video. What better way can you go? Rocking yourself to death... I have a new goal in life.

That's horrible... would've been kinda funny to watch, though...

I wonder if he was actually holding a guitar or not.

Hahahaha, yeah, that sounds like teenagers these days.
You go outside and practice screaming. We'll play music while you're gone.

Man, I hope that's the way I go. The only thing that'd make that cooler would be if he played a kickass solo all the way down.

You know, that sounds like a line from an awful metal song. "Rock yourself to death, in this cradle of pain" or something.

The Cheney hunting video!! , I find this to be one of the funniest videos I've seen in the past few months.

reminds me of the story about the three little monkeys. No more monkeys jumping on the bed. :D

How do they know that was what he was doing - were there any witnesses... Or was he just found on the ground with his guitar in hand....

I couldn't imagine watching that in person - I don't know what I would do - Cry or LMAO....

I don't know - when I picture someone jumping on their bed so hard that they projectiile out the window.....lol

My bed is not that bouncy - well I haven't jumped on my bed lately - at least not pretending to be a Rock Star anyways.

And how big would that window have to be, to clear right through it without hitting the sides.. Maybe he did, but its funnier to picture if he didn't....
