MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (AP) -- A teenager fell six stories from a hotel balcony but walked away with just bruises and scrapes.

Matthew Savage, 17, was reaching up to a balcony one floor above to grab a bathing suit that had fluttered down from the 11th floor when he tumbled over the railing Friday.

The teen, from Gainesville, Ga., hit other balconies on his way down and slammed onto a slanted rooftop, then slid into bushes.

"I just closed my eyes," Savage said, nursing scrapes and bruises on his back and legs.

After landing in the bushes, he got up and started walking back to his room. But paramedics strapped him to a board and flew him to a hospital, where tests showed he was fine.

"This was a 'God is real' event," his sister, Mandy Baker, said.

You can change your name legally, btw.

LMAO
Well, bushes explains it all. They reduce the chances of injury or death.

Yep like that one guy who switched his name to Optimus Prime and then some other guy changed his to Megatron.

The guy named Prime had his insurance rates raised because they feared he would try to battle Megatron... LOL and that's the TRUTH!

Here's the letter from Gieco

As I told you when you originally purchased the policy, GEICO does not offer Megatron coverage, Starscream coverage, Soundwave coverage, Decepticon coverage, or Energon-blast coverage. Those are just not the types of damages we would expect from reasonable use.
