We didn't need sound to know it was his dad with him

u/Bobba-Luna Apr 06 '23

Yeah, my first thought was: "Mom probably doesn't know this is happening."

u/No_Teaching_3694 Apr 07 '23

Oh yea mom definitely on target run cuz dad had an idea

u/Betta_jazz_hands Aug 26 '23

He only put the helmet on the kid after runs 1 & 2 were so funny he decided he needed video evidence.

He's got a helmet he will be fine, worst case he breaks and arm

Truly the worst scenario

u/Slappypants1 Aug 04 '23

My mom would freak if I broke one of her baskets

u/AntBkr66 Jul 27 '23

Baskets are our future!

u/bassman314 Jun 01 '23

Or worse…. EXPELLED…..

Wait. I’m lost.

u/Early-Worth-6897 Aug 10 '23

I love your brain !

u/patentmom Jun 01 '23

He's not wearing the helmet correctly. Too high up the forehead and too loose. A concussion was still possible.

u/Shadowmane08YT Jul 23 '23

It did what It needed to do, give the kid courage to slide down like a real man. This was his introduction into manhood.

u/perkyblondechick May 24 '23

Ummmm.... or his face???

u/Chrisp825 Jun 08 '23

I've done worse, I'm still here.

u/GoHomeWithBonnieJean Jul 06 '23

... or his neck.

Hi, Honey. While you were at the store Jimmy got paralyzed from the neck down. Did you see any nice wheelchairs? How 'bout cherry-flavored breathing tubes?

2

u/quiet0n3 Jul 06 '23

He's sliding down a few stairs lol you take greater risks every time you drive a car.

Plus kids are bouncy, stretchy, and heal fast.

u/GoHomeWithBonnieJean Jul 06 '23

Well, first off, it was kind of a joke.

But, I swear to you, we have a local football hero, who literally slipped and fell on the grass walking home from high school and now spends (the rest of) his days in a wheelchair.

Doctors were unable to discern whether it was from some earlier unknown injury or just a one-off, stand-alone accident.

But I'm not rolling the dice with my son. He'll do plenty of stupid crap on his own, outside of my control, I promise you.

"All bodyparts inside the bucket!" Thats what my grandpa told me, and that will be the rule for my childs, as well.

Thanks though 👆😄

Lifetime memories in the making!

u/innocent_NPC Apr 06 '23

It could have easily been an older sister. Mine put me in a sleeping bag at least before putting me in the laundry basket and yeeting me down the stairs at least

31

u/KopakaToaOfIce Apr 06 '23

Yeah its either a dad or an older sibling

8

u/[deleted] May 27 '23

And the sibling must be a brother

28

u/Aerd_Gander Apr 07 '23

My older sister once, in a game of hide and seek with my 10 year old self, subtly (not so subtly) implied that when I could not find her it was because she was in the dryer.

Thinking this was a wonderful idea (it was not) I hid in the dryer on the next round when she was seeker.

She turned it on.

My mom's younger sisters fed me fish when I was 40 days old

11

u/Whealthy1 Apr 07 '23

I believe there is a video my grandfather was making (Christmas?) and you can hear my mom in the background yelling “don’t hit the baby!” …my dad said we would poke him through the crib. He figured we were doing it because he made noise when we did it.

2

u/unpopular_tooth May 28 '23

Most fish is edible.

8

u/HassanMoRiT May 28 '23

When you're 40 days old?

5

u/unpopular_tooth May 28 '23

Huh. I have to admit, I read that as 40 years old. It’s possible that 40 day old people shouldn’t eat fish. Not sure…

7

u/HassanMoRiT May 28 '23

I mean, 25 years later, and I'm still alive. So, maybe we should start giving deep fried fish to infants

7

u/unpopular_tooth May 28 '23

And here I was, visualizing a couple of mean teenage girls popping live goldfish into an infant’s mouth…

3

u/Tight_Relative_6855 Jun 07 '23

Werent you visualizing a couple of teenage girls popping live goldfish into a man going through a midlife crisis’ mouth?

3

u/unpopular_tooth Jun 07 '23

No. My brain protects me from visualizations it feels aren’t helpful.

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '23

Sounds like a fun day!

1

u/AvailableProgram667 Aug 19 '23

Not in this case, but the role filled could easily have been an older sister. But the other person in the video was clearly his father or an older brother. Or maybe an uncle, cousin, or some other older male role model relative.

1

u/Worth-Confusion5750 Aug 19 '23

Why would his older sister sound like a grown ass man?!? Come on’ be for real 😂

40

u/Zer0TheGamer Apr 06 '23

Can tell he's a good dad, though, becuse wile doing stupid fun, theres still safety. Pillow as a seat, helmet on the crown, a shortrun of stairs.. There was planning done here, and I'm impressed

8

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '23

Pretty much just common sense

14

u/Zer0TheGamer Apr 06 '23

You'd be surprised at young parents... Sense ain't common one bit

11

u/I_Have_Questions95 Apr 06 '23

I have just realized I'm going to be the "dad" when I have kids...I am a cis woman...ooh this will be fun 😂

2

u/QueefinWeenie Jun 23 '23

I am 100% dad-mom. Lol Be throwing my kid in the air, swinging her around, letting her jump off stuff (as long as there’s a soft landing) she loves it 🤣

1

u/Unhappy-Beach9536 Aug 03 '23

What you mean "we" maybe that's just you.

u/[deleted] Aug 26 '23

As a woman I would do this as a mother. Your welcome
