“Minor scrapes” was all this guy suffered for what has to be the worst cliff dive we’ve ever seen.

After completely disregarding the fence meant to keep would-be thrill seekers out, this guy steadies his nerves for one massive plunge off Southern California’s “El Morro.”

Unfortunately, he massively miscalculates the launch and plummets inches from the cliff face toward certain doom.

A brief whimper is all he can muster in the fateful moments before he splashes down. Apparently as stunned as the viewers, he scrambles for the camera and lives to post another day.
