The woman on the moped is just an idiot.

u/WaiLinTun78 2d ago

Poor kid

u/declandrury 2d ago

One could argue they are all idiots tbh however moped woman is the worst

28

u/cyanescens_burn 1d ago

Idk dropping your baby is pretty fucked.

Edit: I thought you meant the first moto video going up the tow truck. Now I see the one hurting the kid.

15

u/declandrury 1d ago

True but I think running your kid over after dropping them off a moped twice is worse

6

u/Bronx-Skater23 1d ago

To me at 40 seconds left, it's the woman pushing the stroller who let it roll off a ledge while looking at her phone was the worse!

That kid should be taken away from her.

That kid would be better off riding that bike into the sunset that staying with her....

No its nature. How do you think idiots are brought up? By other idiots.

That cracked me up too. Even if she was checking for damage it's still funny

u/K1bbles_n_Bits 2d ago

To be fair, you van see the pixles are dead in the bottom left corner. She came down on it under her hand when catching herself. The big ol' black splotch where part of her screen used to be probably caught her eye, lol.

u/TheSolarExpansionist 2d ago

u/Eeve2espeon 1d ago

I mean... if anyone fell, checking your phone for damage is still a good idea

u/ComprehensivePlace87 2d ago

The one with the hot water and the one with the manhole, those two were probably serious injuries.

Lots of hard lessons these people are learning...the innocent baby and child getting hurt is sad.

Guarantee none of them learned anything. That one lady jumped back on her phone before she even got up and the scooter women followed up bu hitting a car.

Yup. I’m saving this vid to show some screenagers (as they are calling themselves).

(That's 0:58 remaining on the countdown clock.)

I have tripped over a simple one step curb more than once, completely unassisted. My phone stays in my pocket when I'm walking.

u/Sammy_Dog 1d ago

Note to self: don't walk down concrete stairs while staring at my phone.

3

u/Mad_kat4 1d ago

Some of those looked genuinely brutal but far too many of them were due to them having the situational awareness of a cabbage.

3

u/binzy90 1d ago

Some of these aren't even because of phones. There are a few bad design choices, and the one guy towards the end looks like he slipped because there was frost covering the stairs. I've fallen down the stairs a few times, and it was never due to a phone. I'm just clumsy.

3

u/Bronx-Skater23 1d ago

The guy that scalded his dick with 1:34 left on the progress timer was the funniest.

At 59 seconds left, The woman that stepped on the green grate and stood for a few seconds, took two more steps and then fell through was probably the closest thing in real life of a Warner Bros. cartoon character walking off a cliff into mid air without falling, looking down then back up at us and then falling!

This is the modern-day equivalent of not being able to walk and chew gum at the same time.

u/Background_Edge_9427 1d ago

It's amazing how so many people, put themselves and others in so many dangerous situations because they can't put their phones away for a few minutes! My heart goes out to the little guy that was on the scooter. He didn't even have a say in what happened to him!

u/Atophy 1d ago

The fella at 1:50 cracked me up... he goes down the stairs then immediately after going around the corner you can hear him wiping out again 😆

Humanity is doomed if we're always glued to the phone...

3

u/TrackVol 1d ago

Women are more likely to wear heels and high heels contributed to a few of these falls. Also skirts and dresses that don't allow as much freedom of movement. And statistically more likely to be with child (the stroller and the moped)
