You’re A Bad Person For Finding This Santa Skydiving Video Funny

Here's one for everyone out there who is already sick of the Christmas spirit. Looks like Santa came in a little hot.

Recently we saw the frankly ridiculous video of those chaps boarding a plane via wingsuit – if you somehow missed that, I strongly recommend you give that a watch HERE.

That’s what we would call a success, a word you would not use to describe Santa’s effort below.

Over the weekend in Florida (they just can’t escape the headlines), George Krokus planned on making a festive surprise entrance to a charity volleyball tournament in Tampa Bay.

He was due to hand out an elf toy to a nine-year-old girl, but then this happened:

Poor ‘ol Krokus ended up breaking a leg during the collision. Like I said, you’re a bad person.

If you want to repent, and are looking for a little festive cheer, there’s a GoFundMe page set up to cover the medical costs:

Unfortunately … G’s skydiving mission to assist Santa in delivering Kristoff (a young girl’s elf on the shelf) and a bag of Spalding volleyballs to the Tampa Bay Beach Bums volleyball tourney supporting the “Operation Santa” toy drive in Gulfport yesterday was interrupted by a tree and lightpole…

It appears that only his leg was broken (both Tibia & Fibula … one of the worst breaks ever seen by medical personel [sic] onsite) but over time, he expects to make full recovery. Please help the Tampa Bay Beach Bums in raising funds to cover his out-of-pocket medical expenses (currently anticipated at $12,500). G is a great guy and beloved Beach Bum Original. Please help him out however you can this holiday season.

And here I was thinking sliding down the chimney was dangerous.
