CAPE CORAL, Fla. -- A southwest Florida teenager is dead after sustaining head injuries from a fall off the trunk of his friend's moving car.

Justin Brantley, 16, was doing a stunt commonly known as "hood surfing," which involves people trying to balance on the hood or trunk of a moving car, authorities said.

Brantley was on the trunk of his friend's Toyota when he fell, police said on Wednesday.

Brantley was rushed by ambulance to Lee Memorial Hospital in critical condition.

He was pronounced dead Thursday.

I do feel bad for his family though. If anything happened to my Danny, I would truly die.

Darwinian theory in action. I feel sorry for his family though.

I feel sorry for his family, too, but I can't help suspecting that the world may be better off without this kid's special brand of stupid. Seriously.
