From Inside Edition:
In a harrowing moment captured on video, a Washington teen is pushed by a friend from a bridge more than 50 feet high. Jordan Holgerson, 16, suffered five cracked ribs and a lung injury. "I could have died," Holgerson said. "In midair, I think I might have blacked out, but I was awake and aware when I hit the water." The location is reportedly a popular location for kids to leap into the water. In the video, kids can be heard counting down and Holgerson appears to hesitate before being pushed.
