The first time I saw this clip, I laughed about it. Now that I know it led to his suicide I feel horrible about laughing about it. I feel bad for the guy.
ESPN should have done they're research before airing the clip. If they had known this accident led to his suicide, they would not have tried to pull humor from the clip at all.
The accident isn't something to laugh at. I don't care how "stupid" you tihnk it was for him to attempt the stunt. The fact that it he commited suicide can't be argued.

back on topic, as stated before, ESPN really should have done their research before they released this report. although clips of stunts going wrong can be funny, news reporters are professionals at what they do and are expected to maintain a professional standards of behaving whilst reporting. i find it really disrespectful and insensitive of them to laugh at not just the video clip in question, but any clip they show on television as it could offend people. having a chuckle in private wouldn't be too bad though as it isn't being broadcasted across america, and as i said before; clips of stunts going wrong can be funny.
That show on espn isn't meant to have "news reporters are professionals at what they do and are expected to maintain a professional standards of behaving whilst reporting". They aren't news reporters, their job is too commentate and analyze funny sports videos, hence a lot of laughing.
