Watch a man fall head first into an open sidewalk cellar (with GIF, of course)

So this guy was just walking along a sidewalk in New York when boom, he fell head first into an open sidewalk cellar. Naturally we made a GIF of it.

As for the boring part, the story, CBS 2 reports…

Jerry Whatts was outside the convenience store at 119th Street and Second Avenue when he heard people yelling at the man to avoid the oncoming danger.

“He didn’t see what was going down. He just went right down, head first,” Whatts said. “People saw him walking toward the gate, and they tried to stop him, but it was already too late. He stumbled down the gate,” said Whatts said.

Here’s the kicker to the story: the man suffered a head injury. No shit.

And the obligatory GIF…
