How much money should Adriana Chechik sue Twitch for?

[Lookingforthetruth]

So earlier this year, Adriana Chechik was at twitchcon, where she landed on her back after diving onto the floor in their foam pit.

She was later rushed to the hospital and had to undergo emergency spinal surgery. While at the hospital, she found out she was pregnant and had to abort her pregnancy in order to undergo the surgery.

She then underwent intense physiotherapy and currently can walk 5 minutes unaided. In the video above, you can see that she could barely walk after the surgery.

How much do you think twitch should pay her for both the emotional and traumatic experience?

50-100 million dollars

20-50 million dollars

10-20 million dollars

1-10 million dollars

500k -1 million dollars

<500k

OH! THAT'S that chick's name! For a while, I thought this was Amouranth or IndieFoxx or one of those Twitch thots! I don't know who Adriana Chechik is, but I've heard this story! She had severe damage from that fall. This is the first time I've seen the video. I've heard it described as being really painful looking, since it's solid concrete under those foam squares. But the incident looks less serious than it was described. Not that I'm saying it WAS less serious. I just expected there to be blood and visible broken bones and crap.

She wasn't the only one who got hurt, too. Others also got hurt from that. I looked up how much Twitch was worth. $2.6 billion. With a B! I don't care how much she and all the others sue for, as long as it's enough to bankrupt Twitch.

Let's say ten people got hurt in that concrete pit. They should each sue for $260 million. And win. Whatever is enough to permanently kill Twitch. com. Okay, realistically, maybe more like $100 million each.

Probably a couple of million

Loss of earnings, costs of care plus the loss of a child

It was an unfortunate accident, I'm not entirely certain they owe her anything. If she wasn't intended to jump on there, then they couldn't know and shouldn't be liable.

Am I the only one that thinks if you play stupid games sooner or later you’ll win stupid prizes?

And here I thought she was hurt due to going too hard on Kama Sutra moves...

[Guy13]

None... she chose to dive. No one forced her...

A foam pit is like a bouncy castle. If you set one up you have a duty of care to anyone using it.

Nothing, what sort of idiot does a stunt like that without testing everything first?

[Jamie05rhs]

That was her choice to jump into the foam pit. I mean, that sucks what happened to her. But risky activities do have inherent risks.

none at all. she should sue lenovo, cause that wasn't a twitch booth.

What the fuck? Did they put solid blocks in the pit for a joke?
