Congress needs to immediately push a law through prohibiting wrestling in front of open third floor windows.

Seriously, though, you know perfectly well that the university will be sued over this.

I heard both died. It is all over my local news. UK is only an hour from me.

This is really sad and nothing to joke about. .

From the 84WHAS newsroom...
(Lexington, Ky.) - A tragic accident early today leaves 2 students dead. It happened shortly after 2 this morning, as the students were wrestling and smashed through a third-floor window to their deaths. One of the students is a 19-year old U-K freshman...the other, a Western Kentucky University student who was on campus visiting his brother. So far, their names have not been released

It's not funny and nothing to joke about, but still what they did was incredibly stupid. If you know that you're going to be rough housing enough where you BOTH fall out the window then maybe you shouldn't be doing it..
Could alcohol have had anything to do with it? (I know I know, it's midweek...)

The window WAS NOT open. It broke with them.

Well accidents do happen. They closed off an area where dirtbikers have been riding outside Stockholm I believe, after a rider went over a hill and down a 20 meter cliff and died.
