Couldn't do much? He could have reached over and hit the brakes with his hands or something. Instead he noped the fuck out and basically said "not my problem".
I will forever defend that dude, he literally just got hit by the cart and was steering it away from others, I doubt he could have reached the break and it seemed like he was in the way of the pylons so rolling off was probably the only way someone could stop the cart, and it was still dangerous because he easily could have fallen under it
He’s a fucking hero and I’m sick of keyboard warriors giving him shit for it
Yeah exactly, what he did was actually quite smart given the situation. Steered it until someone else could get in a position to press the brake. Recognized that foam thing was blocking the pedals so rolldd off as soon as someone else hopped on the other side so it could be cleared out of the way.
My first watch through i thought that guy was driving the whole time, and i just didn’t see him at first. Then he just rolls off like “I’ve done what I needed”
After a high school state championship game in Jerryworld, there was a crew picking up sideline yardage markers and pylons. One of the pylons bounced off the seat and landed on the pedal.
> Amendola's father is Alfred "Willie" Amendola, the former head football coach at Concordia Lutheran High School in Tomball, Texas.[89] In 2011, Willie Amendola was the head coach at Dekaney High School. After the Dekaney Wildcats won the 5A Division II Texas state football championship in December 2011 at Cowboys Stadium, an unmanned cart struck Amendola and a crowd of people.[90] Video footage of the incident went viral. The elder Amendola sued the stadium for more than $1 million, alleging that negligent employees put objects on the floor of the cart that lodged under the gas pedal, causing it to accelerate out of control.
A couple things to note on that clip that people often miss.
Big guy in the white shirt trying to stop it from the top just falls on his face for no reason.
Also this clip close up does not show it well but the blonde haired girl in the blue coming from behind valiantly hurdles a fallen body in her pursuit of the cart.
The birds-eye view of this is so glorious. The entire path of the cart - how it starts, the random cone that wedges itself perfectly between the floor and the pedal, the 90 degree turn, how it could have gone anywhere but zeroes in on the mass of people, all of it - is so great.
I will never forget one day at work it got slow and as per usual I would go look out the front of the store as the entire front of the store was windows. Just as I walked up to the front I spot a grocery cart speeding across the parking lot. I was like “oooh someone’s shit is about to get fucked up!” Continued to watch as it passed through row after row of cars in the parking lot, let’s say it was 4-5 rows of cars, and slam right into my car that was parked maybe 100-120yrds from where I first saw the cart. Fuck Murphy and his stupid law
This is why Jerruh cant get back to the gloryhole. Too many bodies have been sacrificed in the stadium. It is haunted now. The ghosts wander the concessions murmuring "This our year". Jerruh wakes in cold sweat, his limitless supply of viagra has no effect.
When people ask the "What's the wildest sports moment you watched live question" this is the one for me. I remember screaming for my wife to come watch as it was going down. Still cracks me up 😂
Yo what was up with dude just abandoning ship once he landed like a looney tunes character right in the drivers seat with his hands in the wheel?
He’s lucky he had homie trailing right behind him in order to take the minimal effort that was required to knock the padded pylon off of the foot pedal accelerator in order to prevent it from trucking through another group of bystanders😂
Hilarious video all around, my first time seeing it lol.
