Funny until I saw the death comment. I wonder how fast they were traveling when they were ejected from the merry go round. I tried to do a google search but I can't find anything to pinpoint this happening. Anyone find a news article to back up the death comment?

Both of them dead? Just from flying off of it? Squids can survive even some high speed motorcycle crashes.

I doubt if either of them died. Do you have any evidence for it other than "someone on the internet said.."?

theres no way they died, not just cause its highly unlikely at that speed but: why would you post a clip of your friends dying as a comedy video on youtube?
