Woman Breaks 110 Bones in Fall While Practicing Yoga

Yoga may not be as good for you as some people think. Just ask Alexa Terrazas, who nearly died while practicing an "extreme" yoga pose over the weekend in Mexico. The 23-year-old college student was executing the move while hanging over the side of a sixth-floor balcony when she lost her grip, falling 80 feet to the pavement below, Mexican authorities say. Terrazas reportedly broke 110 bones in the fall, requiring her to undergo 11 hours of surgery, according to the Mexican newspaper El Universal. While authorities say she's lucky to have survived the fall, Terrazas won't likely be practicing yoga again anytime soon. Doctors say she'll need "years" of therapy before she fully recovers. What's the riskiest stunt you've ever performed?
