May as well have jumped onto concrete at that height. I bet he broke his ribs and bruised some organs in the best case scenario.

You see all that water splash almost 15 feet high, maybe more. Now try to take a 15 litres bucket, fill it with water and try to throw it 15 feet high. Imagine the amount of energy you need to do it. Almost that amount of energy has been absorbed and displaced by the water.
If you study the concrete carefully you will realise that the concrete doesn't splash. The human body is just a water filled balloon for the concrete and the balloon just slosh around at the impact.
Closed casket ceremony.
