- A home video posted to Instagram by the man’s son (@franbudinn) shows him leaping from a terrace toward a backyard pool and misjudging the landing.

- The video has drawn millions of views and over 127,000 likes, with online reactions mixing relief and humor alongside warnings about attempting similar stunts.
