I&#8217;m hoping it was just a joke, or the guy wasn&#8217;t serious.  But just in case, I decided to solicit some advice on his behalf (I didn&#8217;t really know how to respond other than &#8220;Probably not a good idea &#8211; it hurts.&#8221;)  Here&#8217;s what others came up with&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;if it&#8217;s for not going to work, it&#8217;s OK, but&#8230;<br \/>\nthe bad thing is to jump with a cast&#8230;<br \/>\nso : NO it&#8217;s not a good thing &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I imagine it would feel great! Go for it! Why stop at the leg? There are so many other places to be broken! Your head already appears to be, otherwise I&#8217;d say start with that! &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Definately weird dude.
