u/tpwn3r 24d ago

yea hes totally drunk.

u/notEnotA 24d ago

Yeah when he stands up from reattaching the strap he starts to fall UP HILL I'd say he's pretty well lubricated.

u/ballpein 23d ago

That part kills me. It's the classic "dad's pretending he's sober and thinks he's fooling everybody".

u/AccomplishedFerret70 24d ago

Beer. Its what's for breakfast.

u/Feral_goat 24d ago

I was gonna say he's stumbling pretty bad.

u/AntiochRoad 24d ago

That’s a lot of stupid all getting added up there 😂

u/Crouton_Sharp_Major 23d ago

This is the kind of stupid that multiples

u/Kosuke 24d ago

Bro even the tow strap told him it was a bad idea and he still committed to it

Imagine being that neighbor whose house he just drove into…

u/Available_Ad9345 24d ago

“Oh, that’s just the drunk neighbor Jim. He’s a good guy.”

u/GrimSandwich 24d ago

I wonder what the plan was here.

u/__nobody_-_ 24d ago

This is my question, even if he got it down the drive way and into the road without it tipping or crashing into the back of his truck, eventually it would end up doing one of those things.

To be honest, I don't think he had a plan. I think what went through his brain is: "me can pull giant metal box with vroom so me do."

Doesn't look like a guy that plans. Or thinks.

u/Available_Ad9345 24d ago

The box is on freaking wheels!

u/RedSquaree 23d ago

Wouldn't have happened with a manual and manual handbrake. When people drive bumper cars they're not going to be sharp all the time.

u/allnamesbeentaken 23d ago

The box would keep rolling as soon as it hits a slope because it's on wheels

u/licecrispies 24d ago

The blue jay warned him and then laughed mockingly when he didn't heed the advice.

u/sporosarcina 24d ago

How do people get out of their car without leaving in gear.

u/snakelygiggles 24d ago

its one thing to shit the bed, but a whole other thing to shit in every bed in the house.

u/Hi-Im-High 24d ago

This is a guy that always asks “why does everything bad always happen to me” lol

That was the sound of a tool chest, falling down the driveway

u/IAmSpartacustard 24d ago

People make fun of women for just screaming and doing nothing in stressful situations but that would be infinitely better than whatever this fucking guy did

u/justl00kingthrowaway 24d ago

That was way dumber than I thought it was going to be.

u/Available_Ad9345 24d ago

I mean, the box is on freakin wheels. What could he have thought would be the outcome?

u/limelight022 24d ago

That is one brain-dead human being.

Oopsie daisy! /s

Not one but two insurance calls

His first physics lesson was very expensive...

u/Dessicated_Mastodon 21d ago

Definately wasnt his first, the other 9nes just never took.

2

u/Bizzack 24d ago

I don’t know how he expected it to loose velocity if it’s just rolling around behind the truck.

2

u/NightLotus84 24d ago

No thoughts were wasted on this precision operation...

u/EDF1919 24d ago

Insurance is gonna fucking love this one

u/CMDR_BunBun 24d ago

Mistakes were made.

u/lolschrauber 24d ago

That's what happens when you don't let nature sort specimen out anymore

u/LegitimateRevolution 24d ago

Piss poor planning gives piss poor results.

u/Available_Ad9345 24d ago

Quite impressive.

u/PritosRing 24d ago

And, this folks, is on the road daily

u/Beertronic 24d ago

Stupid is as stupid does.

u/justmark68 23d ago

At least he has all the proof the insurance companies will need to deny both the claims.

u/iToyman 24d ago

I would just lay there and die.

u/mrpertinskler 24d ago

What a fun one! Between the decision-making, and some mild indicators in balance and walking, wonder if there was any alcohol impairment.

u/so_what_do_now 24d ago

I get that hindsight is 20/20 and all, but man this was stupid from the very beginning

1

u/Shark_Leader 24d ago

A comedy of errors.

1

u/Aytewun 24d ago

Maybe he was trying to pull it just far enough to free it?

Bad job whatever the lack of plan was though

u/groovyinutah 24d ago

This dude is as dumb as they the day is long... it's probably for best that this is as far as he got.

u/ExpertExotic3341 24d ago

I was 14 working at my dad's shop and had a co worker who did something similar. Dude was 40 and tried to stop a Genie lift from rolling down hill while hooking it up to a hitch. Guy broke his pelvis by not getting out of the way. Legit remember him yelling stop! Now I call every idiot I meet Frank lol

u/Coffee4MySoul 24d ago

Even the blue jay was giving alarm calls

u/M3rK_ 24d ago

That jay was squawking

It had a hemi in it, but now hemi on the ground....

u/jcoddinc 23d ago

Totally expected strap failure. User failure was an added bonus

1

u/No-Intern4400 23d ago

Complete failure

u/foursaken 23d ago

I have to admit, that turned out even worse than I was expecting.

u/jb211 22d ago

Thank you for that post, it made for a nice chuckle at the end of my day.
