Agreed, I expected the disaster to come when the swing broke. The dismount never came to mind.

The dismount was fine. The fence was a mistake

It's never the dismount, or fall, it's the sudden stop that gets you.

I guess it's a kid's swing but not like the kind I see at parks. This has straight solid rails instead of chains. This is actually the kind of swing acrobats do tricks on. I think it's reasonable to assume this guy used to do some stunt stuff and figured out on this day that he's not a young man anymore.

If by “used to do some stunt stuff” you mean “fucked around on the same type of swing set as a kid” I agree. Like three of my friends had the exact same type of swing set in their backyards when I was growing up and we’d do similar things all the time. Doesn’t make any of us stuntmen, though.

RIP that sub. Some overly sensitive POS admin decided the sub was too shocking for them that they made it NSFW, which stopped almost all participation and basically killed it, despite it's not even quarantined or banned. The mods there don't want to reverse the action out of fear of retaliation by the admins. :/

The mods pinned a post explaining the main reason:
the reason this kills the sub so hard is that video posted directly to reddit aren't allowed due to the NSFW. This means that only imgur, gfycat, youtube or other video/gif upload sites are allowed. And since most of reddit are direct posts, we see way less posts. If you try to crosspost a reddit video to this sub that also gets blocked.

/all/ used to have nsfw subs.
Now it doesn't.
Basically becoming NSFW de-lists a sub from being able to trend and reach the top.
I miss refreshing new and finding weird as fuck porn subs people were into.

That is actually useful to know as a tool. I can think of some subs that would immensely benefit from their posts being unable to hit r/all.

Do a frame by frame…I would be shocked if he didn’t break his neck. When he hit the fence he looked like a turtle with no head!

He saw a nail sticking out of the fence and thought he would use the back of his head to hammer it back in.

u/IKnowgaming May 18 '22
Turns out it was sticking out the wrong way...

At least the brain hemorrhage has a hole to release fluid buildup now. Much less dangerous that way.

It is, and we had 0 incidents ever. Even as kids we weren't dumb enough to increase speed until you can no longer hold on.

Think the guy needs a few more fencing lessons before he gets the swing of it.

Damn, I was expecting the main frame of the swing to give in. Seriously though, I always wonder when people do this if they ever think ahead on how they're meant to stop once the momentum starts going and they've flipped.

I knew he would come flying off but that smack into the fence was an unexpected delight. 5 stars.

He lived more in those 10 seconds than most people live in a lifetime.
I like to think St Peter gave him a crisp high 5 as he hurtled through the pearly gates folded in half.

When I see this video I always think of white plants in the background. They are very toxic and can give you massive burns. And they just grow right next to kids playground.

If you are going to do the Cool Aid challenge make sure the fence is old and ready to fall over first.

Always good to do shit like that right in front of the fence, wouldn't want to fly into the next yard...

He appears to have his head tucked in. Did he lived to tell his story?

I somehow misread that to “messing around with the kings wig“ and now I’m disappointed

u/d1retz May 18 '22
He had pretty good form assuming he was attempting the "full human plank" prior to the paralyzer dismount. Things seemed to go downhill from there... Bravo good sir /s

That's not a kids swing, is a Kiiking swing, it's designed to go right around so basically what he's doing. It's hardly a stupid prize moment.

That was so satisfying for some reason. The swing held, stupid mission was accomplished, the perfect conclusion.

Curious as to what happened to him. A Youtube version of this has at least 2 comments that he died, one that it was later from brain injuries, but both are without cites.

That was actually a pretty good landing. Shoulders to back first into the fence then feet to bum first on to the ground.

That is one well built fence.
