He really doesn’t deserve a Darwin Award. A Darwin Award is for someone who removes stupidity from the gene pool. He helped to pioneer parachute technology and probably will contribute more to the gene pool than probably you ever will.
The best part about this is that on the “List of Inventors Killed By Their Own Inventions” Wikipedia article, a gif of this guy’s death is literally the first thing you see.

There's a British kids show called Horrible Histories and on the show there's a segment called Stupid Deaths that as you can guess talks about people in history who died in really stupid ways. The reason I bring this up is because Franz Reichelt was one such hilariously stupid death. Clement Vallandingham (whom Huggbees mentioned in a previous video) was also mentioned.
My favourite trivia regarding this guy is that 2 days before his jump some guy in America accidentally pulled off the whole parachute clothes thing by complete accident when he jumped off the statue of liberty
@@RedShadowAMV sorry, it's a hoax Sorry, he apparently did jump off statue of liberty although the details aren't clear, what he didn't jump off of is the Washington monument
There's precedent for that. People were jumping off of increasingly high bridges into the water below as a popular stunt, until someone jumped off of the tallest bridge in the world and died.
So ironically enough, the better term might be "The Oldest SURVIVING Film of Someone Dying". As a fun additional fact, the is the only situation in which the terms "Oldest" and "Surviving" apply to Franz.
So, interestingly enough, this happened a second time, kind of. There was a guy nicknamed "Americas First Bat-Man" because his wingsuit was modeled after batwings. He hastily and erroneously repacked his parachutes after a couple years of successful wingsuiting and parachuting stunts which led to him hitting the French pavement at over 200 mph. I only know this cuz my company was commissioned to make a memorial for him.
I've watched that video a couple times, and I'm haunted more by his hesitation than the impact, he stands there for a full minute looking over the edge swaying slightly, you can almost hear the thoughts running through his head and feel his fear and indecisiveness
I remember this story on the show Horrible Histories, I knew it was coming and I was waiting for it Grim Reaper: “Let me guess” *descending whistle* *Splat* Franz: “Basically, but with more screaming”
the fact that he literally tripped too and was completely vertical as the suit fell apart around him and the ice literally making a funnel around him when he landed just shows that he had no idea what he was doing.
I found some info about an earlier recorded death that still exists in some capacity today! _An Execution by Hanging_ was filmed on July 6, 1898, and it depicted the execution of a man named Edward Heinson. Only a single Mutoscope reel of the film has survived, but it is in a private collection. Only a few stills are publicly available.
28:16 Andrew mentioning the bystander effect and how many simple things could've been done to prevent this reminds me of Mad Mike Hughes, the flat earther who built the rocket ship a few years back to see for himself whether the Earth is round or not. So many people showed up to witness this, but nobody stopped him despite knowing the high risk of death.
You know, that's a very valid point. The reason thks death is so stupid isn't because he jumped off the Eiffel tower in an unproven parachute, but because he did it with zero safety precautions! Like the only way he survives is if this parachute is a functional design and works perfectly. If there was a flaw in the design or even just if it didn't properly deploy he dies. I suppose the line between being a daredevil and an idiot is really just if you have something ready to save you if things go wrong.
i watched the original video and he hits the ground so hard he makes the dirt splash up like he landed in water (which should've been the plan, but alas....)
@@kameronharrington5478 what should have been the plan? Landing in the water? Landing on water is no different from landing on concrete at a height like that. Minecraft doesn't like physics
@CatLover-lk9gz oh I'm not saying water would've saved him at this height - I'm saying the actual cloud of dirt coming off the ground looks like water that's how hard he hit it
@@Justapikachu577 I know its kinda late by this point. But. No. Simply put, even something like what firefighters use probably wasn't rated for someone falling from THAT high up. Guy was doomed as soon as he made the jump

I appreciate you covering this. If you are ever curious about the first death ever caught on camera (photograph) it was taken by Jun Fujita in Chicago... his whole story is very interesting. I also made a video on it titled "Jun Fujita's Photographs - A Glimpse into Chicago's Past"
@@SouthernMaineFoameri think it’s two photos of one cop beating a guy to death and another where they’re confirming he’s dead. In the latter photo he’s laid on his side his head resting on his outstretched arm as two police officers look down at him.
34:49 There is a simple lexicographic answer to your predicament: one is 'the first death recorded on film', and the other is 'the earliest existing film depicting a live death' (irony included in that last title) - it's similar to the difference between 'the oldest person ever' and 'the oldest living person', or 'the richest ever person' against 'the current richest person'. They both get a title, one for 'being recorded on film' and one for 'existing on film'
this is a fun one because right at the outset you hear that this is the story of a guy who wanted to design his own parachuting apparatus and you know exactly how the story is gonna end
@tonyhakston536 you're telling me that your God didn't give you good enough eyes to see even through that bulletproof beard to that gorgeous jawline? Clearly, that means you're not worthy of gazing upon a Gods figure, sorry
Im so glad you mentioned what you did about UA-cam in the beginning. I honestly can't stand how absurd they are about any material that isn't tailor made for Children.. i wish YT supported content that's also for decent people who are mature and make quality content on more mature topics or informative difficult topics.. of course i understand they shouldn't allow insane horrible stuff but they are so strict right now that decent content creators aren't even able to cover highly censored true crime case's or other difficult historical events, etc.. idk why they treat us all like we are 4 year olds.. can't we find a balance of content for more grown up mature people..? Come on UA-cam.. stop this nonsense.
Not only is it the first death recorded on film, it’s the first death I ever saw on film and I was completely unprepared for it! The video itself is quite tame but the silence of film and the implied crowd gathered there to watch the event just adds to the creep factor.
I watched the film on the wikipedia page and the first shot of him just really hammered home "I'm about to watch this real, human man die." It's a tame video, but really quite thought-provoking.
The interesting thing was, had he survived he still wouldn't have gotten the reward, as American Fredrick Rodman Law parachuted off the Statue of Liberty two days before
i tend to favor ginger molasses cookies. i used to think they were called ginger snaps-- this confusion probably stemmed from a misnamed generic brand of cookies, leading me to assume dry/regular ginger snaps were actually stale. i was also the kid who for years thought raisin soda was a thing because i kept accidentally reading the french side of a grape crush can. anyway, ginger molasses cookies are rad, i guess.
Good stuff as always honestly the dude seemingly having a huge amount of confidence that he'd be totally fine made it hilarious not to mention the way you described him saying please lol, as always a quality video
I laugh my ass off every time I see that footage, not because he fails and hits the ground, but because after they take his body away someone goes to the impact spot and measures the crater he made 🤣🤣🤣
It's entirely possible he knew the invention likely wouldn't work, and decided to test it himself as a last-ditch effort out of desperation; either he lives and proves himself to the world as a genius, or he dies and, well, doesn't have to deal with it anymore.
I remember researching this one time late at night. It's a super interesting question. Also if you count animal deaths I think this first recorded one is Topsy the elephant from the 1903 film "Electrocuting an Elephant"
@@spidertiger585It was an Edison stunt. Basically, he was a direct current evangelist, and wanted to show that alternating current was more dangerous, so he killed Topsy. Anyway, we don’t use DC anymore. AC became the standard, which means Edison killed Topsy for nothing
@@spidertiger585 Yup, the "no animals were harmed in the making of this film" isn't there in modern media for no reason, haha. There's historical precedent to worry about it not being the case.
"Thanks to tundra temperature topsoil taking its time and terminating his test trial." Gift of Gab would be proud Edit: Carr would definitely be the first in this case. But since its mostly lost media I think Franz should get the title and Carrs should be honorary. My favorite cookies are oatmeal raisin
yesss oatmeal rasin cookies are so underrated and hated on for no reason, its mostly old hate i think but its still an unreasonable amount of dislike for an amazing cookie
Huggbees, thank you for reminding me that everyone online is constantly lying to me. Feels nice to return to that early 2000's level of website paranoia that we seem to have lost.
18:56 The complete dead pan Huggbees used here scared me. The lack of emotion in that "Then he jumped..." was enough to make me sad and wary over a death a century and change away from me. Excellent voice work.
Like Dio once said: "All eyes see the figure of the wizard As he climbs to the top of the world No sound, as he falls instead of rising Time standing still, then there's blood on the sand"

I watched the video moments before walking into this master piece. I saw the comments of the original video and they were lamenting his death and i damn well knew he was about to get shit on by huggbees
Bro the footage is metal as fuck! The amount of dust this guys fall made was shocking! Like I’ve seen war footage of soldiers being killed, buts alway from an thermal camera, and it’s different from seeing a white blob shaped like man disappearing from a sudden white explosion and the video ending there; and this!

Anyway, we don’t use DC anymore. AC became the standard, which means Edison killed Topsy for nothing
@@spidertiger585 Yup, the "no animals were harmed in the making of this film" isn't there in modern media for no reason, haha. There's historical precedent to worry about it not being the case.
You are the only UA-camr who can get away with having literally nothing going on in the background for anything longer than a few frames. GG.
Dude broke his leg and was really like : Let s try again BUT HARDER.
This won't be the first time I saw someone die on the internet
Like 9/11 but that doesn’t directly show deaths
@@mikewzowskeyou can see a he people who died of fall damage I believe, some even showing splatter I think
“The Flying Tailor’s Crater” would also make a great metal song title
Loved when Oppenheimer said "It's Oppen' time."®
I thought he was gonna start Oppen all over the place but it was really just in Japan
I can't believe you can't have footage of a real person actually dying on a monetized platform, this is literally George Orwell's 1984
B-but I wanted to see someone die on a hugbees video though :( PLEEAAAAASEEEE i'll be your best friend :((((((
Huggbees KILLING it with these series.
"Thanks to tundra temperature topsoil taking its time and terminating his test trial." Gift of Gab would be proud
Edit: Carr would definitely be the first in this case. But since its mostly lost media I think Franz should get the title and Carrs should be honorary. My favorite cookies are oatmeal raisin
Oatmeal raisin is so good. Oatmeal cookies in general are amazing!
@@Noodles207 yes. Oatmeal butterscotch cookies are good too but a oatmeal raisin cookie is good as well.
@@Raindrop199 Holy shit oatmeal butterscotch is something I need to try as a cookie now.
yesss oatmeal rasin cookies are so underrated and hated on for no reason, its mostly old hate i think but its still an unreasonable amount of dislike for an amazing cookie
@@BiBirdBoy literally no reason!!!!
I find is so funny that in huggbees’s rendition of how the fall went, he played high to low notes…
Huggbees, thank you for reminding me that everyone online is constantly lying to me. Feels nice to return to that early 2000's level of website paranoia that we seem to have lost.
19:24 this is the most creative way to show a man fucking falling to his death.
Thank you for your commentary Huggbees after watching this and giving it some thought I would also say Oatmeal raisin cookies are my favorite.
12:40 - I did not expect a KoTH YTP reference outside of my friend Group lol
I think its pretty easy to differentiate them: Carr was the first death recorded on film, Franz is the oldest surviving death recorded on film.
18:56 The complete dead pan Huggbees used here scared me. The lack of emotion in that "Then he jumped..." was enough to make me sad and wary over a death a century and change away from me. Excellent voice work.
Ah yes my last day off and a new huggbees, a nice little treat for my tanking mental state
Like Dio once said:
"All eyes see the figure of the wizard
As he climbs to the top of the world
No sound, as he falls instead of rising
Time standing still, then there's blood on the sand"
You have good taste.
I knew about this event for a really long time but I never knew it was recorded into now
Huggbees saying he didn’t watch Oppenheimer is as surprising as finding out that santa isn’t real
That was actually a good way to make people hear a death
ive heard of this guy but i completely forgotten about the fact it was recorded
My first huggbees video in college this made my day better
Good luck!
27:08 Ah yes, a clever "Stupid Child Doesn't Understand How Presidents Work" reference
You're so right! Have a great rest of your year!
@@DetroitP Well, aren't you a nice one?
17:54 Bro really said “See you soon” before he died in front of many people 💀💀💀💀💀
Though not a human death, the execution of Topsy the elephant from 1903 beats Franz Reichelt and still exists today. The footage is on Wikipedia.
Thank you so much for the wonderful content andrew. Will always be a fan and support you in any debate with the offical boys. Youre starting to spoil us with all this content tho, im gonna start fiending for weekly videos from you.
The dude hit the ground like a Looney tunes character.
Congrats on getting Owen Wilson to voice over part of this video! Crazy that you've grown so big to get him in your video.
I'm really glad you got into this new form of art. I loved your how it's actually made videos years ago and it's been fun to see your content grow into what it is.
I watched the video moments before walking into this master piece. I saw the comments of the original video and they were lamenting his death and i damn well knew he was about to get shit on by huggbees
Bro the footage is metal as fuck! The amount of dust this guys fall made was shocking! Like I’ve seen war footage of soldiers being killed, buts alway from an thermal camera, and it’s different from seeing a white blob shaped like man disappearing from a sudden white explosion and the video ending there; and this!
"Fuck it, we ball." - Franz Reichel (1912)
11:27 i spat my fancy coffee out laughing at this part 😅😂
Huggbees never fails to spread me open and fill my with his knowledge juice
Fill what...
FILL YOUR WHAT?!?!
don't blame the guard, if an idiot wants to jump and everyone is telling me to let him jump, I'm letting darwin do his job
my favorite kind of cookies are are the peanut butter ones that come as a box of cookie mix in the grocery store
12:42
Was this a FUCKING HANK OF THE HILL YTP REFERENCE!?
"Be therrrrrerrrrrrer!"
He was a modern day Icarus who flew too close to the sun may he rest in peace.
I love that one of the ads UA-cam gave me for this video was an Applebee's commercial with the song Jump playing
When I was a kid my schoolwork had a recipe for cookies in it, I don't remember what subject it was but i remember wanting to test it out, ever since then my own chocolate peanut butter no-bake cookies have been without a doubt my favorite kind of cookie.
