For those who don't understand why he jumped on the grenade: Hangtime before the grenade is set off is only a couple seconds- a couple of which were used when it was thrown at his position, where it promptly bounced off of him and most likely, into a pile of equipment or other obstacles. If he threw the grenade into the air and it exploded then the shrapnel would be at optimum efficiency, killing all of them without a chance unless it was thrown past some other large/thick object that would protect them from the shrapnel. This would also risk the death of civilians in the area as well as nearby friendlies.
- I'm guessing his flak vest prevented alot of the shrapnel, probably died from concussion wounds to internal organs. sad.TheBlueOne
