A man drank 3 bottles of vodka and jumped out a 5-story window twice!


Thankfully, he was relatively unharmed. A Russian man named Alexei Roskov was extremely drunk and irrational after drinking 3 bottles of vodka. He was drinking in his apartment on the fifth story. Only his wife was present. 

Like many drunks he had delusions of grandeur and was ready to do something daring. He chose to jump out his kitchen window, falling down 5 stories. Fortunately for Roskov, alcohol causes numbness in the central nervous system, which causes the muscles to relax. Since Roskov’s muscles were relaxed, he didn’t tense in anticipation of hitting the ground. 

This spared him from suffering any breaks in his limbs. Largely uninjured, Roskov walked back up to his apartment. His wife had called for an ambulance and was scolding Roskov for his stupidity. Instead of listening to her lecture, Roskov jumped out the window again, and once again survived with only a few scrapes and bruises. Paramedics arrived soon after and were shocked to find Roskov unharmed.
