College Student Practicing "Extreme Yoga" Hanging Off Her Balcony Falls 80 Feet Off Her Balcony (She's Alive)

NY POST - A Mexican college student is alive after falling 80 feet from her balcony while practicing a yoga pose.

Alexa Terrazas, 23, was known to do yoga on her sixth-floor apartment’s balcony, often using the guardrail as a prop for extreme poses. But a risky move nearly cost the yogi her life on Saturday afternoon, as she slipped and landed on the pavement outside her building in the northeastern Mexican state of Nuevo León, according to reports in El Imparcial.

Why can’t anyone just do normal shit anymore, why does it have to be EXTREME?  Why is every trend something that literally kills you?  Is social media and millennial/gen Z problems so bad that you just want to die all the time?  Eating pods of literal detergent.  Choking each other til you pass out.  Abducting yourselves.  Hanging off 80 foot balconies.  I get it, likes and favorites and retweets and “the brand” is cool, but what’s not cool is having both legs reconstructed and not walking for 3 years.  Just go into a fucking studio, turn the heat all the way up and do your downward facing dog in there like my mom does.  Not everything your parents do is the worst thing ever.

I’m not even positive this hanging off the balcony thing IS is a thing – I google image’d extreme yoga and it’s just people in spandex doing really hard poses on the beach and in the park and shit. I don’t know if this girl was going for Xtra Xtreme Extreme Yoga or what, but this is a lesson for everyone – move on to a trend that is a little safer.  Make your goal making the Hot Girls In Yoga Pants site like old times instead of the Next Up For Leg Reconstruction Surgery list.

I had my 3 year crusade defending millennials for ruining shit, now I’m literally out here saving lives.   Insert Batman quote about being a hero.
