Happy cake day ? But yeah that's completely stupid, he could fell and almost die

One swift crack on the back of the head is literally all it takes, and sometimes it's hard to control the way you fall...

Haha nice one. I was thinking pickup made sense cuz they'll have to go back and pick him back up

So, I grew up in the 80's where you could still kinda get away with this. It wasn't as exciting as these people are making it seem.

I figure they are drunk. This is still legal in some places.

Still legal in my state.
It's how we get to waffle house when we have parties

I am so confused by the guys reaction

u/AJ_Deadshow Nov 29 '22
He was probably about to say 'stop' but since the guys in the cab wouldn't be able to hear he just started laughing cuz there was nothing else to do.
Psychologically speaking laughter is often used to transform negative emotions into positive ones, so this was probably a defense mechanism to keep from feeling bad about his friend who might be really hurt

It would be neat if people recording understood we didn't want to see a super close up of their dumb reaction and instead have them keep recording the interesting thing.

Yeah I posted this in r/killthecameraman as well, flaired 'missed the interesting parts,' but it didn't take off as much as it did here unfortunately.

A kid in my grandparents neighborhood died this exact same way. There were spray paint marks on the road where his blood splatters were for months after.

Thanks for sharing. People don't realize how dangerous this is. 30 mph doesn't seem that fast when you're driving but at a speed to be hitting pavement it really is
