This is one of the most popular viral videos going around. It actually appeared online in the third week of July 2009 and went viral in the second week of September 2009. Usually he never had a name. It first appeared on Arabic and Turkish websites and eventually found its way onto the Internet.
Some events have described it as terrible diving accident, bridge failure, worst diving accident, terrible diving accident, terrible diving accident, disgusting diving accident, jumping accident, terrible mobile diving accident and diving accident. I call it Dive Failed because I can’t think of a better way.
A 16-year-old boy slides off the Corniche in Beirut, Lebanon, before diving. A landslide caused it to miss into the sea and instead hit a concrete slab where fishermen were fishing. It first hits the concrete surface and then flows into the sea. It wasn’t long before the sea he wandered was red with blood.
There were people and boats in the water trying to help the men and girls everywhere screaming. The scene then moves to the hospital where the poor man is being looked after by a team of doctors and nurses. His face was cut in half vertically down the middle!
He was alive, conscious, breathing, and his tongue was moving. He looked scared. The doctor took the edges of his face, put them together a few times and made a whole face. The doctor said, “Where do I start?” said the doctor. Arabic several times.
(Leaked) Face Split Diving Accident Video Viral On Twitter and Reddit
The amateur text copy at the beginning of the video again shows that the entire video was shot in Lebanon, including unconfirmed footage at the end. The victim appeared to have scary breath and a look of fear on his face.
The entire video has weird, clichéd, elusive background music that adds to the scares for some odd reason. The music is actually the soundtrack to a medical show on American TV – from ER or Chicago Hope.
And the amateur phone footage jumps every now and then, making the video a bit scary.
