I would think it is a hoax. The statements aren't made in the same order on the two videos. On the first video the second guy first asks if the other is okay, then if it hurts and then tells him don't move, don't move. On the second person's video the first thing he says to him is don't move, don't move and then something else and then asks if he is okay. I don;t remember hearing him ask if it hurts on the second video.

Also, with that being said. If this is somehow valid, shouldn't the second guy be given his "Stupid" sign for the following questions:

"Are you okay?"

and..

"Does it hurt?"

What the hell do you think?

The other thing that is odd os that the second person didn't seem to have the panick in his voice or actions that I would expect from somehow who most likely would have suspected that they just watched their friend die (or felow human if they weren't friends).

It's been reported all over the news. Not that it really means anything these days.

How do I view the video? When I go that site I don't see a link to pull up the video?

seems like it could be legit....just a lucky place to land.
