Captain Concussion

Martin gained this title while he was working a construction job (I know, the occupation should be illegal for Martin). Always eager to help his coworkers, Martin went up a short flight of stairs to get a tool for his boss. On the way back down, he figured he could get there quicker by jumping down the stairs. He didn't realize this was not possible because there was a soffit (The underside of a structural component, such as a beam, arch, staircase, or cornice) above the staircase. So as he jumped down, his head smacked squarely on the soffit, swinging his lower body forward so that he landed on his back. He was out cold for a couple on minutes.

That was not the only time he accomplished this feat. Here is his description of the second time:

"The next one came at the house I am currently living in. My brother was ill and needed his puke bucket from up stairs. So I flew up the stairs and successfully obtained the bucket however on my way back down stairs in my haste I decided to jump from the 4th stair down to the landing(I really should have not jumped or waited until I was atleast at the 1st or second stair. There is a skull imprint in the sofit at my house now."

I asked him if he needed to go to the hospital for any of these, his response was: "No hospital I don’t need no stickin hospital, no concusions, the second one did not knock me out just dazed me. I have a hard head."

Obviously there was a concussion and he is still feeling the effects.
