Haha, dear god. I spotted this over at music thing today.

A TEENAGER bounced off his bed and out of a third-floor
window to his death during a wild impression of a rock
guitarist.
Excited Li Xiao Meng was jumping around with his guitar in
the bedroom of a Singapore students' hostel when he made the
fatal mistake.
The 16-year-old business student, from China, was "hyped up
with exhilaration" when he rebounded off the bed and out of
the window, coroner Tan Boon Heng told the Straits Times
newspaper.
“He was jumping up and down on the bed placed against
an open window while imitating a rock guitarist,” Mr
Tan said.
Li often met with his friends in one of their rooms, where
they smoked, sang and played guitar.
The boys apparently kept the window open because they liked
to smoke, even though it was banned by the hostel.
Mr Tan urged authorities to improve safety at the dormitory,
saying the room’s window latch had been tampered
with.
Li’s father, Li Zhong Yuan, 58, expressed sorrow over
what happened to his only child.
“Now he’s gone and at my age, I don’t
think I can have another child,” he said.

Li, we salute you!
