Boston's Mayor, Martin J. Walsh recently made remarks about local residents who have recorded themselves jumping out of windows and landing in snow banks.
Many individuals have filmed the stunts and posted the footage to social media and it has become a popular trend - one that Walsh certainly isn't happy about.
During a press conference on Monday, Walsh called it a "foolish thing to do" and asked those who are performing the window jumps to stop right away as the consequences could be fatal.
The mayor stated, "We're trying to remove snow off of the street and it becomes very dangerous. And the last thing we want to do is respond to an emergency call where somebody jumped out of the window because they thought it was a funny thing to do."
He said that just because consecutive snowstorms have slammed the city in recent weeks
