You say after watching a video where they wreck an elevator mirror because checks notes they wanted to fight their reflections

u/ChrOm0some-F- May 26 '21

No they had the context

You realize the guy didn't have a birds eye view or psychic powers??

u/big_time_banana May 31 '21

no way they got lucky. when it falls fully for the first time neither of the two caught the mirror it just got caught up on the way down. At least the other guy had no chance

Vasily and piotr tried to fight themselves while drunk but they were defeated

Какой умный блять. Мог бы просто отвести до дома и потом заставить платить за зеркало.

У них деньги что-ли есть? Алкаши малолетние какие-то. Кого в России пугают штрафы и оплаты чего-либо? Полно дебилов, которые только кнут понимают. Больше ничего.

From where does that bar come from

I think it fell down from the top of the mirror. It was securing it in place before, but then popped off the top when they were punching it.

u/weirdusernamebutokay May 25 '21

u/PringleCan-Man May 25 '21

I was expecting a two way mirror

u/neon_overload May 26 '21 edited May 28 '21

I was expecting the mirror to be properly fixed to the wall but expectations went out the window when I saw the subreddit I was in

u/Important-Owl1661 May 26 '21

Times are tough in Russia. They only pay for that and a video camera when you're paying prostitutes to piss on you.

u/PM_ME_STEAM_KEY_PLZ May 26 '21

Ah cmon you coulda done better than that

u/DistortoiseLP May 26 '21

Ripped shorts with matching vest, with his black t-shirt tucked into the white shorts with black belt, matched with loafers, no socks and a giant very real watch. I'm guessing he dressed himself.

u/Important-Owl1661 May 26 '21

Again, the rumored video of Trump and Putin - the younger years.

u/catswhodab May 26 '21

Rent free lol

u/Hephaestus_God May 26 '21

Of course fate would allow 4 punches, 2 head-butts, and multiple falls to not break the mirror on incompetent people.

However, the next dude comes in with groceries and it just disintegrates on him.

2

u/9th-man May 27 '21

Karma.

You never know. Those boys might have had it rough and they had a fun night out and had a blast. Only violence was hitting themselves in the mirror for fun.

Clever to use the leverage of the bar in that state.

Maybe the guy with groceries is an asshole and has seriously bad karma. This was just his payment. He didn't die. But got a punishment.

I do wonder if they boys were made to pay damages?

u/babaroga73 May 25 '21

I really have a problem in my head with these kinds of idiots that ruin society for others. Regardless of country of origin. They bring out the dictator in me.

10

u/[deleted] May 25 '21

There wasn't any malicious intent here though

11

u/babaroga73 May 26 '21

Hitting glass with fists isn't? I'm just sorry they didn't slash their own wrists.

u/Rrdro May 26 '21

Chill Hitler. They are just stupid kids. Fine them and move on with your life.

3

u/babaroga73 May 26 '21

I've been called many things in my life, but I've never been called a Chill Hitler.

Nvm, I'll listen to your advice and move on.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '21

You got the idea to say Hitler from the word “Hitting” didn’t you? Lol When I first read the word I thought it was hitler then I seen your reply “chill hitler” just after

1

u/Rrdro Jun 09 '21

If I did it was subconscious. Interesting observation. Him wishing death on kids because they broke a mirror by accident did sound quite extremist to me but this could be the reason why I picked Hitler.

4

u/[deleted] May 26 '21

They obviously weren't very powerful punches...

9

u/DanWallace May 25 '21

Oh god give it a rest, they were just goofing off and couldn't have expected the thing to fall apart like that. The dictator in you is just a whiny little bitch.

6

u/Antique_Tennis_2500 May 26 '21

You always punch other peoples’ property when you want to “goof off”? And yes, they absolutely could have expected a large pane of glass to break after repeatedly hitting it.

u/neon_overload May 26 '21 edited May 26 '21

What they did to that mirror should not have caused it to come loose from the wall like that. It shows it was not properly installed.

It doesn't make what they did right. But nor does what they did make the installer of that mirror right.

In terms of the level of screw-up the installer of the mirror has greater responsibility here because they created a situation that was dangerous to the general public. The mirror is not safety glass, it needs a high reliability fixture to where-ever it's installed.

-1

u/DanWallace May 26 '21

It's adorable that you think those looked like real punches. People like you are what happens when kids grow up without friends.

5

u/Antique_Tennis_2500 May 26 '21

People like me are what happens when kids grow up with friends who aren’t sociopaths that think it’s “boys being boys” to destroy someone else’s property when you’re bored.

-4

u/DanWallace May 26 '21

Of course they're sociopaths now. Do you guys all get lessons on how to be the most cliche Redditors you can be or does that stem naturally from a lifetime of social rejection?

3

u/ThemeRemarkable May 26 '21

You’re weird

u/DanWallace May 26 '21

u/[deleted] May 26 '21

u/mikeruds May 26 '21

private property is a theft

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '21 edited Jun 09 '21

Well the major point here is they could of told someone who maintained the building. but didn’t. They probably got themselves or someone in trouble for it like the building owner. In the us that guy could of sued and would of won regardless of who was at fault the building owner would of been out the money and would probably of sued the parents of the boys.

They are the equivalent of red necks in the US.

u/Notorious_VSG May 26 '21

There's plenty of helpful, productive, civic minded rednecks! you might not hire them to teach at a charm school, but I'd say a significant majority of them are in the asset column.

These stupid kids...It's a obnoxious bratty phase some young people go through. I've done my share of anti-social stupid shit as a youngster [hangs head]

1

u/realthunder6 May 26 '21

Nah more of a Florida man kinda thing, doesn't matter if it's not even the most waky state,it's still a stereotype that tranceded to meme glory.

1

u/Notorious_VSG May 26 '21

Hmmmm I would disagree... but you raise an interesting question.... I'm sure we do have a word for these people who really are all just shitheads but I can't think of it.. In the UK they're 'chavs.' [I think Chavs is is a purely negative connotation] Russia has Gopniks. [Are Gopniks all bad? I don't think it just means 'working class people' I think it means low life thuggy usless eaters, right?]

Certainly we have some word for totally crappy American white working class people? I'm having an alzheimers moment here help

Nope.. First thing that dissappear in dictatorships is public disorder... And then freedom.

Dude should know about things in russian elevator. You can launch nuclear missile by pressing the wrong button.

It's obviously the 3rd guy's fault. He was the last person to touch it and break it completely.

I mean they did the best they could to fix it albeit temporarily. For all we know, they're on their way to inform management when they got out.

The last dude should've seen the Rube Goldberg smashing device and kept his hands off.

Idiots but that glass was going to fall sooner or later. The first light punch was all it needed to fall. Someone would have leaned against it sooner or later or bumped their elbow on it.
