This 17-Year-Old Actually Survived This Epic Fall And It Was Caught On Snapchat

Annie Schwenker is a 17-year-old from South Carolina whose INSANE backward fall off a cruise ship railing was captured on video and is going viral on Facebook.

The fall was originally tweeted a few days ago by Annie’s friend Maddie, who took it during their spring break cruise nearly two months ago.




In the video, you can hear her friend yell, “Annie, don’t fall!” as Annie swiftly dropsbackward and tumbles off the railing like a rag doll into the abyss that is the middle of the stairwell.
The crazy clip started as a Snapchat, and Annie asked Maddie to delete it immediately, but she kept it. (Thank you, Maddie.) Last week at a graduation barbecue, Annie gave Maddie the go-ahead to post the video, knowing it would probably blow up on social media. She was right!

OMG.

“There was only one day left on the trip, and I didn’t want to stay in bed all night so I went out again even though it hurt like crazy to move or breathe,” Annie said. “When we got back to land, it was a 12-hour drive to the hospital because of traffic, but I ended up getting an X-ray and turns out I broke my rib!”

As for Annie, she just wants people to know she’s alive.

“Everyone thinks I’m dead, so I’m glad I can just tell people I’m still here… I would probably go railing surfing again, but I just need to make sure to hold on with both hands next time,” said Annie.
