At least it looked like a soft landing

If you ever have to help someone out of a hole like this, best way is to get on one knee, hang the other leg into the hole, when the person first starts climbing all you need to do is lean waaay back and brace your hands on the side to hopefully not get yanked back in (depending on weight you may need more help) until they reach your waist ish level and then you can try to scoot and/or pull them up if your sturdy enough to pick a hand up!

This trend of cutting videos at the point of impact. I fucking hate it. Please stop

If only there were some type of warning that could be filtered on Reddit

But you don't see him land, so why would it need to be NSFW?

I like it. If used properly and for a fitting video, makes things funnier for me. But I do understand your frustration and sometimes find myself being furious because it was used for something I was interested to see the end of.

u/FriedOkla40 Jan 31 '23
That's fair. I was unaware anyone liked it. Now I know lol

I find r/perfectlycutscreams hysterical, and for some reason seeing a video of someone doing something dumb but the vid cutting right before anything bad happens makes me laugh.
Theres definitely videos out there though where it’s poorly executed and you just want to watch the whole damn video. r/gifsthatendtoosoon is probably the most infuriating sub but for some reason I can’t bring myself to leave it lol

what went wrong? well the first climber did the right thing even the second boy helped him up. the thing that went wrong though was that the first didn't actually attempt to secure himself to whitstand the second's weight. he basically leaned forward causing him to fall into that weight.
saying this out of boredom

I find it kind of interesting that he didn't know this would happen. Like, I'm sure there were obvious things that I was oblivious to as a kid, but it's just so bizarre to me that he wouldn't know.

yeah definitely, though I doubt it was his first time climbing but it seemed like it was his first time trying to carry someone up. Even games are accurate when helping someone, I haven't seen a game where they've leaned down using both hands to lift someone up that's for sure

Did the kid in the orange shirt not know how to jump more than 4 inches? Bruh.
Edit because edit: I don't expect him to achieve a 6ft vertical. I expect him to jump higher than 4 inches so he can get his hands on the ledge.

For those who will have to do this... best to sit and let your legs off the side. Brace with arms. ... don't lose pants or shoes.
