Sherlock (BBC)

Ok, so here's a trickier question;

HUGE SEREIS TWO SPOILER:

Sherlock touches the back of his head before he jumps and the blood is around that area when Sherlock is on the ground; so blood capsule is my guess, perhaps from Molly. Apparently there's a way to seem as if there's no pulse with a squash ball under the armpit (cuts off the blood flow), and Sherlock was playing with a ball during the episode. I think he jumps onto garbage truck, then onto ground (breaking the capsule along the way). Some guy slows down Watson, may be an accomplice. No pulse, so he's taken to morgue, and Mycroft or Molly fakes his death. Maybe.

He put his clothes on moriaty and ran off with a lift from Molly. Its a bad theory but its the best I have.

That's a good theory. Also, he lands right side down, but there's blood on the left side of his head as well. I'm not a doctor, but I'm not sure that's supposed to happen.

I think that everyone in the street where Sherlock 'fell' were his people, he had an accomplice delay Watson, he jumped down, was caught by his accomlices (possibly in a rubbish truck). He pushed Moriaty off the roof before he jumped, his accomplices put a mold of Sherlock's face onto Moriaty's. Watson arrives, checks Moraity's pulse and finds him dead. Sherlock is still alive and in a secure location.
