Poor Billy transformed from kinetic energy to potential energy and then... well... to thermal energy in the ground. The equation tells the whole tragic story - as he fell, his potential energy (mgh) converted to kinetic energy (½mv²), but unfortunately, the negative sign indicates he lost all that height... permanently. Physics doesn't care about your feelings, just your final velocity.
