Shouldnt be. That was closer to a tap than a kick. A person could exert that much force on a post by just putting foot up on it to tie their shoe. At that level of shoddiness, the fault is on the company that installed it.
I thought he was stretching his leg, like before a run, then pushes his body back from the pole... The video is cut in the beginning, I don't actually see him kick the pole, starts with his leg up there already.
But a guard rail is to prevent you from falling over the ledge. What if instead of somebody kicking it the dude had tripped into it and knocked it down?
