This sounds like a "Jackass" type stunt.  If it ISN'T, Bones better watch out if he's considering building in his garage ;)

All three limbs were shortened to make reattachment possible

For some reason THAT scares me more than the idea of losing 3 limbs.

I have come from a dim place in the last 12 months but it has nothing on what this guy is about to go through. This dude is in hell for the next two years and even then he will never be the same.

Probably the saddest thing is his age, although this will be a bonus in the physical recovery.

Bones, was this a flat-out accident, or did I hit it right that it was some "Jackass: The Movie" type stunt, or aren't they releasing much about it?

I haven't heard this story on our local news. Been on holidays and away from TV's and radios.....

But, I didn't read Jackass into the web page myself. Just some young kids I imagine were playing as kids do.

Although.......I can't imagine that a 10 year old gets anywhere near doing a slam dunk so there may have been some extra foolishness in action.

I believe the USUAL method involves an exercise trampoline.
