A young man from Russia has survived two falls from a 5th-floor window, he was trying to kill himself after drinking three bottles of vodka.

After surviving these, his says he will give up drinking.

Astonishingly Mr Roskov, 22, survived and managed to stagger back upstairs with barely a scratch after the 50ft fall.

But while his wife called for an ambulance and began to scold him, he jumped again.

Amazed medics treated Mr Roskov for minor cuts and bruises before releasing him.


I am surprised that the vodka did not kill him.

The vodka is most likely the only reason he is still alive. He was relaxed, and adsorbed the impact instead of tense & broken.
