<p>WTH?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I had to watch that 4-5 times before I could figure out what exactly happened. I thought at first the car that hit the kid who fell out the door was oncoming. This totally didn't make any sense to me because it would have been coming right at the bike the douche who fell out of the car was trying to "door-check."</p>

<p>No, the kid on the bike was just riding in the parking lane behind a parked car. The driver of the car and the kid in the back seat were…</p>

<p>No, the kid on the bike was just riding in the parking lane behind a parked car. The driver of the car and the kid in the back seat were messing with the kids on the bikes and was trying to "door-check"one of them into the parked car. Instant karma indeed, as the door-checking somehow caused the the kid to fall out of the open door. Perhaps the kid put his weight behind the door in anticipation of the check and somehow over-shot enough to fall out the open doorway and then into the parked car as his vehicle drove past it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It looked pretty gnarly. Face-first into a car bumper is very serious. I know a kid who did that when someone tried to "Fake out" a so-called friend on a motorcycle by pretending to door him as he drove by at 4MPH. The motorcyclist freaked and locked up the front wheel and ended up falling head-first into the car door anyhow even though it was only open a couple of inches as he pulled it shut at the lat minute. Guy was in a coma for months and although he survived was never the same "in the head" again after that. The brain damage from the impact and swelling totally changed his personality and temperament as well as shaved off about 30 IQ points. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Perhaps the kids on the bikes were not unknowing victims but were playing along and everyone was being stupidly "rough" (some kids do this -we used to play kamakaze demo-derby on bikes and would joust and try to bash each other off of our bikes but never were we stupid enough to try this by throwing cars into the mix. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>This kid got what he deserved. Instant karma/Darwin -whatever. Stupid hurts. If they were messing with innocent kids on their bikes than it goes beyond stupid to plain old evil. I don't see how anyone with 3 functioning brain cells couldn't see such actions as homicidal and criminal assault. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Wow. <br/> <br/>
