Then, there was one Cubs fan who took his celebration to the top of a traffic light, and well, things didn't go as he had imagined. 

After a long, awkward silence, it looks like the guy may have been alright. But in a weird way, we don't think this dude would consider being seriously injured at a Cubs' World Series parade a bad thing.
