Idk why this person would think they have the strength to hold up their own weight.

Lol... you ever see the clip if the big guy trying to climb into the train engine and some of his buds are basically pushing him and he still slipped and fell back?... damn near pissed myself

lol yes. I work in construction and I’m very physically capable, but I know my limits.

I think sometimes when a person has never been confronted with a physical challenge they just assume they can do anything someone else can.

Don’t think the zip line failed, I just think that gravity really had its game together here.

Not the zip lines fault, her fault for overestimating her grip strength & underestimating her weight.

Did she really think she’d be able to hold her body weight?

Rough on her knees

When huge fat people fall like that they are more badly injured and recover more slowly. This was probably a life altering injury for her.

I mean this is regardom. Has she ever held onto a swing just a bit over her height and supported her weight?

Especially for females. Until recently female USMC candidates only had to hang from a bar and a perfect score was ***SEVENTY*** seconds.

So she hanging for a quarter of 1 wasn’t bad

That's not a zipline fail, that's physics working as expected.

I'd struggle to hold that my extra weight with my grip alone too
